vxlan: Fix kernel crash on rmmod.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
vxlan exit module unregisters vxlan net and then it unregisters
rtnl ops which triggers vxlan_dellink() from __rtnl_kill_links().
vxlan_dellink() deletes vxlan-dev from vxlan_list which has
list-head in vxlan-net-struct but that is already gone due to
net-unregister. That is how we are getting following crash.

Following commit fixes the crash by fixing module exit path.
