Subject: [PATCH net v4] team: fix null-ptr-deref when team device type is changed

Get a null-ptr-deref bug as follows with reproducer [1].

When enslave a vlan device to team device and team device type is changed
from non-ether to ether, header_ops of team device is changed to
vlan_header_ops. That is incorrect and will trigger null-ptr-deref
for vlan->real_dev in vlan_dev_hard_header() because team device is not
a vlan device.

Assign eth_header_ops to header_ops of team device when its type is changed
from non-ether to ether to fix the bug.

v4:
  - Add Reviewed-by tag.
v3:
  - Export eth_header_ops to fix modpost error.
v2:
  - Just modify header_ops to eth_header_ops not use ether_setup().
