Subject: [PATCH] net: retain NOCARRIER on protodown interfaces

Make interface with enabled protodown to retain NOCARRIER state during
transfer of operstate from its lower device.

Signed-off-by: Volodymyr Boyko <boyko.cxx@...il.com>
---
Currently bringing up lower device enables carrier on upper devices
ignoring the protodown flag.

Steps to reproduce:
```
ip l a test0 up type dummy
ip l a test0.mv0 up link test0 type macvlan mode bridge
ip l s test0.mv0 protodown on
sleep 1
printf 'before flap:\n'
ip -o l show | grep test0
ip l set down test0 && ip l set up test0
printf 'after flap:\n'
ip -o l show | grep test0
ip l del test0
```

output without this change:
```
before flap:
28: test0.mv0@...t0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
	 state LOWERLAYERDOWN protodown on
after flap:
28: test0.mv0@...t0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
	 state UP protodown on
```

output with this change:
```
before flap:
28: test0.mv0@...t0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
	state DOWN protodown on
after flap:
28: test0.mv0@...t0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
	state DOWN protodown on
```
