By default there is no rtnetlink event generated when registering a netdev with rtnl_link_ops until its rtnl_link_state is switched to initialized (RTNL_LINK_INITIALIZED). This causes issues with user tools like NetworkManager which relies on such event to manage links. Fix that by setting link to initialized (via rtnl_configure_link).
