commit b9a1e627405d68d475a3c1f35e685ccfb5bbe668 upstream.

hsr_link_ops implements ->newlink() but not ->dellink(),
which leads that resources not released after removing the device,
particularly the entries in self_node_db and node_db.

So add ->dellink() implementation to replace the priv_destructor.
This also makes the code slightly easier to understand.

If the airport gods cooperate, I'm going to queue:

edf070a0fb45a ("hsr: fix a NULL pointer deref in hsr_dev_xmit()")
311633b604063 ("hsr: switch ->dellink() to ->ndo_uninit()")

as fixes for this commit.
