commit 991fb3f7 "dev: always advertise rx_flags changes via netlink"
introduced rtnl notification from __dev_set_promiscuity(),
which can be called in atomic context.

Steps to reproduce:
ip tuntap add dev tap1 mode tap
ifconfig tap1 up
tcpdump -nei tap1 &
ip tuntap del dev tap1 mode tap

[  271.627994] device tap1 left promiscuous mode
