Since we're not under rtnl_lock here, the device could go down while
we're creating this peer, and we may end up with a down device that
has a peer anyway.

I'm not sure what this (and the peer flushing on NETDEV_DOWN) is
trying to accomplish. Is it a problem to keep peers when the netdevice
is down?

All those returns should be "goto peer_release" (and setting ret) so
that we don't leak peer.

With the delayed socket release (which is similar to what was in v11,
but now with refcounting on the netdevice which should make
rtnl_link_unregister in ovpn_cleanup wait [*]), we may return to
userspace as if the peer was gone, but the socket hasn't been detached
yet.

A userspace application that tries to remove the peer and immediately
re-create it with the same socket could get EBUSY if the workqueue
hasn't done its job yet. That would be quite confusing to the
application.

So I would add a completion to wait here until the socket has been
fully detached. Something like below.

[*] I don't think the current refcounting fully protects against that,
I'll comment on 05/25
