Don't use netdev_info and friends before the net_device is registered.
This avoids ugly messages like
"meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized):
Enable RX Mitigation via HW Watchdog Timer"

It'd be nice to mention the new message prefix.

Sorry, I thought it's obvious because here the message trail looks
like this:

meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: DMA HW capability register supported
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: Normal descriptors
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: RX Checksum Offload Engine supported
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: COE Type 2
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: TX Checksum insertion supported
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet: Wake-Up On Lan supported
meson8b-dwmac c9410000.ethernet (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Enable RX Mitigation via HW Watchdog Timer

Better update the commit message and send a v2?
