From: yangerkun <yangerkun@xxxxxxxxxx>
After include 3b5a39979daf ("slip: Fix memory leak in slip_open error path")
and e58c19124189 ("slip: Fix use-after-free Read in slip_open") with 4.4.y/4.9.y.
We will trigger a bug since we can double free sl->dev in slip_open. Actually,
we should backport cf124db566e6 ("net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release
of private netdev state.") too since it has delete free_netdev from sl_free_netdev.
Fix it by delete free_netdev from slip_open.
