netdev: define NETDEV_INTERNAL
Linus suggested during one of past maintainer summits (in context of
a DMA_BUF discussion) that symbol namespaces can be used to prevent
unwelcome but in-tree code from using all exported functions.
Create a namespace for netdev.
Export netdev_rx_queue_restart(), drivers may want to use it since
it gives them a simple and safe way to restart a queue to apply
config changes. But it's both too low level and too actively developed
to be used outside netdev.
