Subject: netdev: New function netdev_exists().
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5bfc0cd3c6210fb64b614664045ab240dbd44307;p=openvswitch

netdev: New function netdev_exists().

This new function allows cleanup of code that was using
netdev_nodev_get_flags() or ad-hoc methods to detect whether a network
device with the given name exists.
