By passing the hard_iface to netdev_master_upper_dev_link() as private data, we can iterate over hardifs of a mesh interface more efficiently using netdev_for_each_lower_private*() (instead of iterating over the global hardif list). In addition, this will enable resolving a hardif from its netdev using netdev_lower_dev_get_private() and getting rid of the global list altogether in the following patches. A similar approach can be seen in the bonding driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
