From: Mahesh Bandewar <mahe...@google.com> In almost every scenario the loopback device is brought UP after initialization. So there is no point of bringing up the device in DOWN state followed by device UP operation. This change exposed another issue of fib-trie initialization which is corrected in the first path.
