Subject: vlan 05/06: Move device unregistration before lower dev cleanup

vlan: Move device unregistration before lower dev cleanup

Move the unregister_netdevice() call for the VLAN device before cleanup
for the lower device. This is needed by GVRP so it can send a leave
message before the applicant on the lower device is cleaned up.
