Subject: [34-longterm 208/260] b44: fix carrier detection on bind

From: Paul Fertser <fercerpav@...il.com>

commit bcf64aa379fcadd074449cbf0c049da70071b06f upstream.

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.
