Subject: [PATCH 5.15 178/262] ibmvnic: register netdev after init of adapter

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@...ux.ibm.com>

commit 570425f8c7c18b14fa8a2a58a0adb431968ad118 upstream.

Finish initializing the adapter before registering netdev so state
is consistent.

Fixes: c26eba03e407 ("ibmvnic: Update reset infrastructure to support tunable parameters")
