rtnetlink: Do not generate notifications for POST_TYPE_CHANGE event

Changing the master device for a link generates many messages; the one generated for POST_TYPE_CHANGE is redundant: [LINK]11: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master br1 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 02:02:02:02:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff [LINK]11: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master br1 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 02:02:02:02:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Remove POST_TYPE_CHANGE from the list of notifiers that generate notifications.
