Under very rare cases we can run into a race condition where interfaces are still in creation phase but are already referenced..
This can trigger:
This commit removes the code path in question and the class attribute check. The reason for the iftype attribute in the past was a common _create() method serving for all interface types. As we already have a lot of derived implementations and not all honor the classes iftype/type member - or even worse honor it only in 50% of the occurrences it's time to drop it.
