xen-netfront: fix queue name setting

[ Upstream commit 2d408c0d4574b01b9ed45e02516888bf925e11a9 ]

Commit f599c64fdf7d ("xen-netfront: Fix race between device setup and
open") changed the initialization order: xennet_create_queues() now
happens before we do register_netdev() so using netdev->name in
xennet_init_queue() is incorrect, we end up with the following in
/proc/interrupts:

 60:        139          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q0-tx
 61:        265          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q0-rx
 62:        234          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q1-tx
 63:          1          0   xen-dyn    -event     eth%d-q1-rx

and this looks ugly. Actually, using early netdev name (even when it's
already set) is also not ideal: nowadays we tend to rename eth devices
and queue name may end up not corresponding to the netdev name.

Use nodename from xenbus device for queue naming: this can't change in VM's
lifetime. Now /proc/interrupts looks like

 62:        202          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q0-tx
 63:        317          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q0-rx
 64:        262          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q1-tx
 65:         17          0   xen-dyn    -event     device/vif/0-q1-rx
