rS342887: Stop setting if_linkmib in vlan(4) ifnets.
Summary

It doesn't really make sense:

  • the structure being exported isn't a MIB,
  • the structure being exported is private to the kernel and always has been, and
  • no other drivers in widespread use implement a link-specific MIB.

Moreover, the IFDATA_LINKSPECIFIC interface allows a privileged user to
overwrite a bunch of internal state without any validation.
