ethernet: run callbacks for subifs too when mac changes

When MAC address changes for an interface, address change callbacks are
executed for it. In turn adjacencies register a callback for MAC address
changes to be able to update their rewrite strings accordingly.

Subinterfaces inherit MAC address from the parent interface. When MAC
address of the parent interface changes, it also implies MAC address
change for its subinterfaces. The problem is that this is currently not
considered when address change callbacks are executed. After MAC address
change on the parent interface, packets sent from subinterfaces might
have wrong source MAC address as the result of stale adjacencies. For
example, ARP messages might be sent with the wrong (previous) MAC
address and address resolution will fail.

With this fix, when address change callbacks are executed for an
interface, they will be also executed for its subinterfaces. And
adjacencies will be able to update accordingly.

Type: fix
