Initialization must be completed before calling _vdpa_register_device()
since it can connect the device to the vDPA bus, so requests can arrive
after that call.
So for example vdpasim_net_work(), which uses the net->*_stats variables,
can be scheduled before they are initialized.
Let's move _vdpa_register_device() to the end of vdpasim_net_dev_add()
and add a comment to avoid future issues.

Notes:
I don't have a reproducer, but I became aware of this problem while
I was changing the buffer allocation.
In the block device, as soon as the device is registered, the driver
sends several requests, and I guess this might happen for the net
device as well.
Thanks,
Stefano
