Bringing a linked netdevsim device down and then up causes communication failure because both interfaces lack carrier. Basically a ifdown/ifup on the interface make the link broken. Commit3762ec05a9("netdevsim: add NAPI support") added supported for NAPI, calling netif_carrier_off() in nsim_stop(). This patch re-enables the carrier symmetrically on nsim_open(), in case the device is linked and the peer is up.
