Taehee Yoo 60086c3773 net: openvswitch: do not free vport if register_netdevice() is failed.
[ Upstream commit 309b66970ee2abf721ecd0876a48940fa0b99a35 ]

In order to create an internal vport, internal_dev_create() is used and
that calls register_netdevice() internally.
If register_netdevice() fails, it calls dev->priv_destructor() to free
private data of netdev. actually, a private data of this is a vport.

Hence internal_dev_create() should not free and use a vport after failure
of register_netdevice().

Test command
    ovs-dpctl add-dp bonding_masters

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
