H A Dipoib_vlan.cedb5abb1 Tue Mar 31 12:22:32 CDT 2009 Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com> IPoIB: Avoid free_netdev() BUG when destroying a child interface

We have to release the RTNL before calling free_netdev() so that the
device state has a chance to become NETREG_UNREGISTERED. Otherwise
when removing a child interface, we hit the BUG() that tests the
device state in free_netdev().
