Subject: [PATCH v3 1/7] atm: detach protocol before closing vcc

The vcc_destroy_socket() closes vcc before the protocol is detached
from vcc by calling vcc->push() with NULL skb. This leaves some time
window, where the protocol may call vcc->send() on closed vcc.

It happens at least with pppoatm protocol and usbatm driver, and causes
an Oops:

Now the protocol is detached before vcc is closed.
