Subject: macvlan: Fix one possible double free
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc8
Git-commit: d02fd6e7d2933ede6478a15f9e4ce8a93845824e
References: bsc#1109837

Because the macvlan_uninit would free the macvlan port, so there is one
double free case in macvlan_common_newlink. When the macvlan port is just
created, then register_netdevice or netdev_upper_dev_link failed and they
would invoke macvlan_uninit. Then it would reach the macvlan_port_destroy
which triggers the double free.
