Subject: [PATCH net, 2/2] hv_netvsc: Fix error handling in netvsc_attach()

If rndis_filter_open() fails, we need to remove the rndis device created
in earlier steps, before returning an error code. Otherwise, the retry of
netvsc_attach() from its callers will fail and hang.

Fixes: 7b2ee50c0cd5 ("hv_netvsc: common detach logic")
