[PATCH 5/5] net/hyperv: Call netif_carrier_off() after register_netdev()

[Ilya Shchepetkov <shchepetkov@ispras.ru>]

For carrier detection to work properly when binding the driver with a
cable unplugged, netif_carrier_off() should be called after
register_netdev(), not before.

Calling netif_carrier_off() before register_netdev() was causing the
network interface to miss a linkwatch pending event leading to an
inconsistent state if the link is not up when interface is initialized.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
