The problem is that the bridge's VLAN group is created after setting the
default PVID, when registering the netdevice and executing its
ndo_init().

Fix this by changing the order of both operations, so that
br_changelink() is only processed after the netdevice is registered,
when the VLAN group is already initialized.

Fixes: b6677449df ("bridge: netlink: call br_changelink() during br_dev_newlink()")
