[ Upstream commit f25caaca424703d5a0607310f0452f978f1f78d9 ]
IOSM driver registers network device without setting the
needs_free_netdev flag, and does NOT call free_netdev() when
unregisters network device, which causes a memory leak.
This patch sets needs_free_netdev to true when registers
network device, which makes netdev subsystem call free_netdev()
automatically after unregister_netdevice().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
