Subject: [PATCH] tipc: fix modprobe tipc failed after switch order of device
 registration

From: Junwei Hu <hujunwei4@...wei.com>

Error message printed:
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'tipc': Address family not
supported by protocol.
when modprobe tipc after the following patch: switch order of
device registration, commit 7e27e8d6130c
("tipc: switch order of device registration to fix a crash")

Because sock_create_kern(net, AF_TIPC, ...) is called by
tipc_topsrv_create_listener() in the initialization process
of tipc_net_ops, tipc_socket_init() must be execute before that.

I move tipc_socket_init() into function tipc_init_net().

Fixes: 7e27e8d6130c
