Subject: [PATCH 08/10] batman-adv: don't access unregistered net_device object
In batadv_hardif_disable_interface() there is a call to
batadv_softif_destroy_sysfs() which in turns invokes
unregister_netdevice() on the soft_iface.
After this point we cannot rely on the soft_iface object
anymore because it might get free'd by the netdev periodic
routine at any time.
For this reason the netdev_upper_dev_unlink(.., soft_iface) call
is moved before the invocation of batadv_softif_destroy_sysfs() so
that we can be sure that the soft_iface object is still valid.
