[VLAN]: Tag vlan_group_device with net device, not ifindex.
Currently vlan group is searched using one key - the ifindex.
We'll have to lookup the vlan_group by two keys - ifindex and
net. Turning the vlan_group lookup key to struct net_device
pointer will make this process easier.
Besides, this will eliminate one more place in the networking,
that assumes that indexes are unique in the kernel.
