Subject: skge: don't mark carrier down at start
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cdf64c803e6cfec72259f7bb2654261584bb80a8;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

skge: don't mark carrier down at start

The API for network devices has changed so that setting carrier off at
probe is no longer required.  This should fix the IPv6 addrconf issue.
