The rtnetlink_event currently functions as a blacklist where we block cerntain netdev events from being sent to user space. As a result, events have been added to the system that userspace probably doesn't care about.
This patch converts the implementation to the white list so that newly events would have to be specifically added to the list to be sent to userspace. This would force new event implementers to consider whether a given event is usefull to user space or if it's just a kernel event.
