net: Have netpoll bring-up DSA management interface
DSA network devices rely on having their DSA management interface up and running otherwise their ndo_open() will return -ENETDOWN. Without doing this it would not be possible to use DSA devices as netconsole when configured on the command line. These devices also do not utilize the upper/lower linking so the check about the netpoll device having upper is not going to be a problem. The solution adopted here is identical to the one done for net/ipv4/ipconfig.c with 728c020 ("net: ipv4: handle DSA enabled master network devices"), with the network namespace scope being restricted to that of the process configuring netpoll.
