Subject: [PATCH 4.4 46/93] batman-adv: Drop reference to netdevice on last reference

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@...fation.org>

commit 140ed8e87ca8f4875c2b146cdb2cdbf0c9ac6080 upstream.

The references to the network device should be dropped inside the release
function for batadv_hard_iface similar to what is done with the batman-adv
internal datastructures.
