net: usbnet: Fix the wrong netif_carrier_on() call

commit 8466d393700f9ccef68134d3349f4e0a087679b9 upstream.

The commit referenced in the Fixes tag causes usbnet to malfunction
(identified via git bisect). Post-commit, my external RJ45 LAN cable
fails to connect. Linus also reported the same issue after pulling that
commit.

The code has a logic error: netif_carrier_on() is only called when the
link is already on. Fix this by moving the netif_carrier_on() call
outside the if-statement entirely. This ensures it is always called
when EVENT_LINK_CARRIER_ON is set and properly clears it regardless
of the link state.
