We need to do some rework on the dummy netdev. Calling the free_netdev() would
normally make sense, and that will be addressed in an upcoming patch. For now
just revert the behavior to what it was before keeping the unused variable
removal part of the patch.
The dd->dumm_netdev is mainly used for packet receiving through
NAPI. Consequently, it is allocated with kcalloc_node instead of
alloc_netdev_mqs for typical net devices. A a result, it should be
freed with kfree instead of free_netdev that leads to a crash when
unloading the hfi1 module:
