Bug Description

  CC [M] /opt/stack/contrail/vrouter/linux/vr_host_interface.o
/opt/stack/contrail/vrouter/linux/vr_host_interface.c: In function ‘linux_if_notifier’:
/opt/stack/contrail/vrouter/linux/vr_host_interface.c:2264:21: error: invalid operands to binary != (have ‘possible_net_t {aka struct <anonymous>}’ and ‘struct net *’)
     if (dev->nd_net != &init_net) {

The reason for the failure is because in 4.1 version, net_device->nd_net is changed to "possible_net_t nd_net;"
from " struct net *nd_net;"
