Subject: [PATCH net 2/3] s390/qeth: fix race when initializing the IP address table

The ucast IP table is utilized by some of the L3-specific sysfs attributes
that qeth_l3_create_device_attributes() provides. So initialize the table
_before_ registering the attributes.

Fixes: ebccc7397e4a ("s390/qeth: add missing hash table initializations")
