Currently, iflink of the parent interface was always accessed, even
when interface didn't have a parent and hence we crashed there.
Handle the interface types properly: for a child interface, return
the ifindex of the parent, for parent interface, return its ifindex.
For child devices, make sure to set the parent pointer prior to
invoking register_netdevice(), this allows the new ndo to be called
by the stack immediately after the child device is registered.
Fixes: 5aa7add8f14b ('infiniband/ipoib: implement ndo_get_iflink')
