Revert "net: dsa: setup master before ports"

This reverts commit 11fd667d.

dsa_slave_change_mtu() updates the MTU of the DSA master and of the
associated CPU port, but only if it detects a change to the master MTU.

The blamed commit in the Fixes: tag below addressed a regression where
dsa_slave_change_mtu() would return early and not do anything due to
ds->ops->port_change_mtu() not being implemented.

However, that commit also had the effect that the master MTU got set up
to the correct value by dsa_master_setup(), but the associated CPU port's
MTU did not get updated. This causes breakage for drivers that rely on
the ->port_change_mtu() DSA call to account for the tagging overhead on
the CPU port, and don't set up the initial MTU during the setup phase.

Things actually worked before because they were in a fragile equilibrium
where dsa_slave_change_mtu() was called before dsa_master_setup() was.
So dsa_slave_change_mtu() could actually detect a change and update the
CPU port MTU too.

Restore the code to the way things used to work by reverting the reorder
of dsa_tree_setup_master() and dsa_tree_setup_ports(). That change did
not have a concrete motivation going for it anyway, it just looked
better.
