lagg: Avoid dropping locks when starting the interface
The init routine of a lagg(4) interface will not change during the whole
lifecycle. So we can call lagg_init() directly instead of through the
function pointer. Well, that requires a drop and pickup lock, which
unnecessarily expose a small race window. Refactor lagg_init() into
lagg_init_locked() and call the later one to avoid that.
Meanwhile, delay updating the driver managed status until after the
interface is really ready.
