commit bc71d8b580ba81b55b6e15b1c0320632515b4bac upstream.

When virt_wifi interface is created, virt_wifi_newlink() is called and
it calls register_netdevice().
if register_netdevice() fails, it internally would call
->priv_destructor(), which is virt_wifi_net_device_destructor() and
it frees netdev. but virt_wifi_newlink() still use netdev.
So, use-after-free would occur in virt_wifi_newlink().

Test commands:
ip link add dummy0 type dummy
modprobe bonding
ip link add bonding_masters link dummy0 type virt_wifi

Splat looks like:
