Commit 0241b83673 ("vxlan: fix default fdb entry netlink notify
ordering during netdev create") split the creation of the default FDB
entry from its notification to avoid sending a RTM_NEWNEIGH notification
before RTM_NEWLINK.
Previous patches restructured the code so that the default FDB entry is
created after registering the VXLAN device and the notification about
the new entry immediately follows its creation.
Therefore, simplify the code and revert back to vxlan_fdb_update() which
takes care of both creating the FDB entry and notifying user space
about it.
Hold the FDB hash lock when calling vxlan_fdb_update() like it expects.
A subsequent patch will add a lockdep assertion to make sure this is
indeed the case.

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.
