Subject: [PATCH] net: ipconfig: Fix more use after free
While commit 9c706a49d660 ("net: ipconfig: fix use after free") avoids
the use after free, the resulting code still ends up calling both the
ic_setup_if() and ic_setup_routes() after calling ic_close_devs(), and
access to the device is still required.
Move the call to ic_close_devs() to the very end of the function.
