You do off then on, so you assume the feature was on to begin with.
Not all features will be on. You gotta change the order based on
the initial state so that the feature goes back to what it was.

More importantly, tho, currently in our CI this test passes:
https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/contest.html?test=netdevice-sh
But it doesn't do anything:
https://netdev-3.bots.linux.dev/vmksft-net/results/638724/98-netdevice-sh/stdout
https://netdev-3.bots.linux.dev/vmksft-net-dbg/results/638544/90-netdevice-sh/stdout
Because I'm guessing the VM does not have any interface to test.
Before we extend the test could you please make the test automatically
add a veth or netdevsim device if there is no testable device on the
system? Make sure you remove it before exiting.
You can look at tests in tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/netdevsim
for inspiration and library scripts which can be reused.
