When ethP is the parent interface of ipvlan interface ethC,
and you do
# ip link set ethP down
ethC's link state is not brought down.
In the below example, ens5 is the host interface which is the
parent of the ipvlan interface eth0 in the container.
Host:
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip link set ens5 down
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip -d link show dev ens5
3: ens5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 9000 qdisc mq state DOWN
...
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]#
Container:
[root@testnode-ol8 /]# ip -d link show dev eth0
2: eth0@if3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 state UNKNOWN
...
ipvlan mode l2 bridge
[root@testnode-ol8 /]#
eth0 continues to remain UP.
macvlan already addresses this handling of NETDEV_DOWN event.
Adding the same functionality to ipvlan.

In case of stacked devices, to help propagate the down
link state from the parent/root device (to this leaf device),
handle NETDEV_DOWN event like it is done now for NETDEV_UP.
In the below example, ens5 is the host interface which is the
parent of the ipvlan interface eth0 in the container.
Host:
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip link set ens5 down
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]# ip -d link show dev ens5
3: ens5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 9000 qdisc mq state DOWN
...
[root@gkn-podman-x64 ~]#
Container:
[root@testnode-ol8 /]# ip -d link show dev eth0
2: eth0@if3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 state UNKNOWN
...
ipvlan mode l2 bridge
...
[root@testnode-ol8 /]#
eth0's state continues to show up as UP even though ens5 is now DOWN.

No need to add a cover letter for a single patch.
Add what's relevant to the main commit message.

When you squash the cover letter in, please add say that for macvlan
the handling was added in commit 80fd2d6ca546 ("macvlan: Change status
when lower device goes down").

Maybe put these in the same order they are in macvlan?
