cnic: Improve NETDEV_UP event handling
During NETDEV_UP, we use symbol_get() to get the net driver's cnic probe function. This sometimes doesn't work if NETDEV_UP happens right after NETDEV_REGISTER and the net driver is still running module init code. As a result, the cnic device may not be discovered. We fix this by probing on all NETDEV events if the device's netif_running state is up. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
