Taehee Yoo 1962f86b42 virt_wifi: fix refcnt leak in module exit routine
virt_wifi_newlink() calls netdev_upper_dev_link() and it internally
holds reference count of lower interface.

Current code does not release a reference count of the lower interface
when the lower interface is being deleted.
So, reference count leaks occur.

Test commands:
    ip link add dummy0 type dummy
    ip link add vw1 link dummy0 type virt_wifi
    ip link del dummy0

Splat looks like:

This patch adds notifier routine to delete upper interface before deleting
lower interface.

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.
