[PATCH 3.8 123/124] Revert "ip6tnl: fix use after free of fb_tnl_dev"

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.8.13.18 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>

[ No relevant upstream commit. ]

This reverts commit 22c3ec552c29cf4bd4a75566088950fe57d860c4.

This patch is not the right fix, it introduces a memory leak when a netns is
destroyed (the FB device is never deleted).
