net: loopback: use NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE for name_assign_type
When the name_assign_type attribute was introduced (commit 685343fc3ba6, "net: add name_assign_type netdev attribute"), the loopback device was explicitly mentioned as one which would make use of NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE: The name_assign_type attribute gives hints where the interface name of a given net-device comes from. These values are currently defined: ... NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE: The ifname has been assigned by the kernel in a predictable way that is guaranteed to avoid reuse and always be the same for a given device. Examples include statically created devices like the loopback device [...] Switch to that so that reading /sys/class/net/lo/name_assign_type produces something sensible instead of returning -EINVAL.
