Well, when we create external link with ip utility we cannot
specify its index. Thus we will not be able to move external
device to namespace and ask criu to restore link params.
However, RTM_SETLINK can happily work with the link name only.
And since we do have one in the images, we can omit setting
the index in the requrest.
TODO: Send patch with index specification to iproute2.
