[PATCH] loopback: Force LOOPBACK_IFINDEX for registration

[Serhey Popovych <serhe.popovych@gmail.com>]

Now with commit 9c7dafb (net: Allow to create links with
given ifindex) support registration of network devices
with specific ifindex is added.

We can force loopback network device index before call to
register_netdev() to ensure we always configure it with
LOOPBACK_IFINDEX.

Kill BUG_ON() since system can continue without network
namespace failed in loopback init path, unless it is
init_net namespace where we panic() anyway.
