Revert "net-loopback: set lo dev initial state to UP"
In commit
c9dca822c729 ("net-loopback: set lo dev initial state to UP"),
linux started automatically bringing up the loopback device of a newly
created namespace. However, an existing user script might reasonably have
the following stanza when creating a new namespace -- and in fact at least
tools/testing/selftests/net/fib_nexthops.sh in Linux's very own testsuite
does:
# set -e
# ip netns add foo
# ip -netns foo addr add 127.0.0.1/8 dev lo
# ip -netns foo link set lo up
# set +e
This will now fail, because the kernel reasonably rejects "ip addr add" of
a duplicate address. The described change of behavior therefore constitutes
a breakage. Revert it.
