There's an early return in veth_set_features() if the device is in a down state, which leads to the XDP feature flags not being updated when enabling GRO while the device is down. Which in turn leads to XDP_REDIRECT not working, because the redirect code now checks the flags. Fix this by updating the feature flags after bringing the device up.
