It is impossible to use init_dummy_netdev together with alloc_netdev()
as the 'setup' argument.

This is because alloc_netdev() initializes some fields in the net_device
structure, and later init_dummy_netdev() memzero them all. This causes
some problems as reported here:

	https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240322082336.49f110cc@kernel.org/

Split the init_dummy_netdev() function in two. Create a new function called
init_dummy_netdev_core() that does not memzero the net_device structure.
Then have init_dummy_netdev() memzero-ing and calling
init_dummy_netdev_core(), keeping the old behaviour.

init_dummy_netdev_core() is the new function that could be called as an
argument for alloc_netdev().

Also, create a helper to allocate and initialize dummy net devices,
leveraging init_dummy_netdev_core() as the setup argument. This function
basically simplify the allocation of dummy devices, by allocating and
initializing it. Freeing the device continue to be done through
free_netdev()
