    rtnetlink: Fix memory(net_device) leak when ->newlink fails · cebb6975
    Weilong Chen authored
    When vlan_newlink call register_vlan_dev fails, it might return error
    with dev->reg_state = NETREG_UNREGISTERED. The rtnl_newlink should
    free the memory. But currently rtnl_newlink only free the memory which
    state is NETREG_UNINITIALIZED.
