caif: Fix access to freed pernet memory
[ Upstream commit 96f80d123eff05c3cd4701463786b87952a6c3ac ] unregister_netdevice_notifier() must be called before unregister_pernet_subsys() to avoid accessing already freed pernet memory. This fixes the following oops when doing rmmod: Call Trace: [<ffffffffa0f802bd>] caif_device_notify+0x4d/0x5a0 [caif] [<ffffffff81552ba9>] unregister_netdevice_notifier+0xb9/0x100 [<ffffffffa0f86dcc>] caif_device_exit+0x1c/0x250 [caif] [<ffffffff810e7734>] sys_delete_module+0x1a4/0x300 [<ffffffff810da82d>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x15d/0x1e0 [<ffffffff813517de>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_thunk+0x3a/0x3 [<ffffffff81696bad>] system_call_fastpath+0x1a/0x1f RIP [<ffffffffa0f7f561>] caif_get+0x51/0xb0 [caif] Signed-off-by: Sjur Brændeland <sjur.brandeland@stericsson.com> Acked-by: "Eric W.
