[PATCH 4.9 022/172] net: 8021q: Fix one possible panic caused by BUG_ON in free_netdev

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Gao Feng <gfree.wind@xxxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 9745e362add89432d2c951272a99b0a5fe4348a9 ]

The register_vlan_device would invoke free_netdev directly, when
register_vlan_dev failed. It would trigger the BUG_ON in free_netdev
if the dev was already registered. In this case, the netdev would be
freed in netdev_run_todo later.

So add one condition check now. Only when dev is not registered, then
free it directly.

The following is the part coredump when netdev_upper_dev_link failed
in register_vlan_dev. I removed the lines which are too long.
