3.19.8-ckt2 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stefan Wahren <stefan.wahren at i2se.com>
commit 268be0f7a7d9b3644bcb99568efba13cb208b627 upstream.
Registering the netdev before setting the priv data is unsafe.
So fix this possible race by setting the priv data first.
