Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net: fec: fix use-after-free in fec_drv_remove

Smatch says:
	drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c:3994 fec_drv_remove() error: Using fep after free_{netdev,candev}(ndev);
	drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c:3995 fec_drv_remove() error: Using fep after free_{netdev,candev}(ndev);

Since fep pointer is netdev private data, accessing it after free_netdev()
call can cause use-after-free bug. Fix it by moving free_netdev() call at
the end of the function
