At first, I thought the real_dev's dev_refcnt is bigger than one before
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier event of the vlan net_device because it calls
dev_put(real_dev) after calling unregister_netdevice_queue(dev, head).
I thought unregister_netdevice_queue() would issue NETDEV_UNREGISTER
notifier event of the vlan net_device, I can hold the real_dev in
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier event handler netdevice_queue_work().

But I read unregister_vlan_dev() again, found unregister_netdevice_queue()
in unregister_vlan_dev() just move the vlan net_device to a list to unregister
later. So it is possible the real_dev has been freed when we access in
netdevice_queue_work() although the probability is very small.

So the modification need to improve. For example set vlan->real_dev = NULL
after dev_put(real_dev) in unregister_vlan_dev() proposed by Jason Gunthorpe.

Do you have any other good ideas?

Thank you!
