4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ad6c9986bcb627c7c22b8f9e9a934becc27df87c ]

If we receive a packet while deleting a VXLAN device, there's a chance
vxlan_rcv() is called at the same time as vxlan_dellink(). This is fine,
except that vxlan_dellink() should never ever touch stuff that's still in
use, such as the GRO cells list.

Otherwise, vxlan_rcv() crashes while queueing packets via
gro_cells_receive().

Move the gro_cells_destroy() to vxlan_uninit(), which runs after the RCU
grace period is elapsed and nothing needs the gro_cells anymore.

This is now done in the same way as commit 8e816df87997 ("geneve: Use GRO
cells infrastructure.") originally implemented for GENEVE.
