Subject: [PATCH] man: ip-link.8: Fix 'ip link delete' description

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1341343

Upstream Status: Side effect of iproute2.git commit 7f74cf6de03a3

This is not a backport as the above mentioned upstream commit does

something completely different and we only want the man page fix it

contains.
