Breno Leitao ae5a0456e0 netpoll: Ensure clean state on setup failures
Modify netpoll_setup() and __netpoll_setup() to ensure that the netpoll
structure (np) is left in a clean state if setup fails for any reason.
This prevents carrying over misconfigured fields in case of partial
setup success.

Key changes:
- np->dev is now set only after successful setup, ensuring it's always
  NULL if netpoll is not configured or if netpoll_setup() fails.
- np->local_ip is zeroed if netpoll setup doesn't complete successfully.
- Added DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE() checks to catch unexpected states.
- Reordered some operations in __netpoll_setup() for better logical flow.

These changes improve the reliability of netpoll configuration, since it
assures that the structure is fully initialized or totally unset.
