net: pass info struct via netdevice notifier
So far, only net_device * could be passed along with netdevice notifier
event. This patch provides a possibility to pass custom structure
able to provide info that event listener needs to know.

Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us>

v2->v3: fix typo on simeth
	shortened dev_getter
	shortened notifier_info struct name
v1->v2: fix notifier_call parameter in call_netdevice_notifier()
