From: Anuradha Karuppiah <anuradhak@cumulusnetworks.com>

On detecting errors an application can set IFF_PROTO_DOWN on a device.
These switchdev APIs allow the switch device driver to react to
IFF_PROTO_DOWN by doing a phy down on the switch port. Doing this allows
the connected server to react quickly and prevent traffic black holing
in the network.
