net: dsa: Fix network device registration order
[ Upstream commit e804441cfe0b60f6c430901946a69c01eac09df1 ]
We cannot be registering the network device first, then setting its
carrier off and finally connecting it to a PHY, doing that leaves a
window during which the carrier is at best inconsistent, and at worse
the device is not usable without a down/up sequence since the network
device is visible to user space with possibly no PHY device attached.
Re-order steps so that they make logical sense. This fixes some devices
where the port was not usable after e.g: an unbind then bind of the
driver.
Fixes: 0071f56e46da ("dsa: Register netdev before phy")
Fixes: 91da11f870f0 ("net: Distributed Switch Architecture protocol support")
