Petr Machata 1edb5cbf49 Revert "net-loopback: set lo dev initial state to UP"
In commit c9dca822c7 ("net-loopback: set lo dev initial state to UP"),
linux started automatically bringing up the loopback device of a newly
created namespace. However, an existing user script might reasonably have
the following stanza when creating a new namespace -- and in fact at least
tools/testing/selftests/net/fib_nexthops.sh in Linux's very own testsuite
does:

 # set -e
 # ip netns add foo
 # ip -netns foo addr add 127.0.0.1/8 dev lo
 # ip -netns foo link set lo up
 # set +e

This will now fail, because the kernel reasonably rejects "ip addr add" of
a duplicate address. The described change of behavior therefore constitutes
a breakage. Revert it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
