rG4b2af7db2012: LinuxKPI: add KPI for netdev_notifier_info returning ifp
rG801cf532e70f: LinuxKPI: add KPI for netdev_notifier_info returning ifp

Summary

While currently the ifp gets cast to a net_device and then returned
and consumers are expecting an ifp again allow parallel usage now and
in the future by extending and also passing the ifp directly back in
the netdev_notifier_info. Add a function to return the ifp instead of
the net_device.

You may want to bump the __FreeBSD_version too, due to changing an existing API.

The change looks good to me.
