atm: propagate signal changes via notifier
Add notifier chain for changes in atm_dev. Clients like br2684 will call register_atmdevice_notifier() to be notified of changes. Drivers will call atm_dev_signal_change() to notify clients like br2684 of the change. On DSL and ATM devices it's usefull to have a know if you have a carrier signal. netdevice LOWER_UP changes can be propagated to userspace via netlink monitor.
