rGfa25dbfd98ff: ifnet API: Change if_init() to take context argument

Summary

Some drivers, like iflib drivers, take a 'context' argument instead of a
ifnet argument, as a single interface may have multiple contexts.
Follow this scheme by passing the context argument down. Most drivers
will likely pass 'ifp' as the context.
