4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 576cd32082351620a4e76b8babc4d5ae9b4bbb98 ]
It was been observed that with a particular order of initialisation, the netdev can be up, but the SFP module still has its TX_DISABLE signal asserted. This occurs when the network device brought up before the SFP kernel module has been inserted by userspace.
This occurs because sfp-bus layer does not hear about the change in network device state, and so assumes that it is still down. Set netdev->sfp when the upstream is registered to work around this problem.
