[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] util: use netlink to create bridge devices

This patch series comes out of a comment in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1125755 that pointed out that sioctl(SIOCBRDELBR) won't delete a bridge interface if it is IFF_UP, but the netlink RTM_DELLINK message doesn't care - it will delete it anyway. In these patches we switch to using RTM_DELLINK to avoid failures caused by a bridge interface that is IFF_UP.
