[ Upstream commit 531705a765493655472c993627106e19f7e5a6d2 ]
When following tests are performed, it will cause dev reference counting leakage. a)ip link add bond2 type bond mode balance-rr b)ip link set bond2 up c)ifenslave -f bond2 rose1 d)ip link del bond2
When new bond device is created, the default type of the bond device is ether. And the bond device is up, lapbeth_device_event() receives the message and creates a new lapbeth device. In this case, the reference count value of dev is hold once. But after "ifenslave -f bond2 rose1" command is executed, the type of the bond device is changed to rose. When the bond device is unregistered, lapbeth_device_event() will not put the dev reference count.
