[PATCH] mlx4: set carrier off after register netdev

[Min Zhang <mzhang@mvista.com>]

ifconfig mlx4_en port reported RUNNING even though the link was down.

mlx4_en_init_netdev didn't initialize the dev operstate properly so
the operstate stayed as default IF_OPER_UNKNOWN, then ifconfig treated
the UNKNOWN as RUNNING state for backward compatiblity per RFC2863.

The fix calls netif_carrier_off which is supposed to set operstate
after register_netdev. Calling it before register_netdev has no effect
since the dev->state is still NETREG_UNINITIALIZED

Tested by removing the physical link signal to the mellanox 10G port,
modprobe mlx4_en, then ifconfig up. Verify there is no RUNNING status.
