[ Upstream commit 2091a3d42b4f339eaeed11228e0cbe9d4f92f558 ]
As the description before netdev_run_todo, we cannot call free_netdev
before rtnl_unlock, fix it by reorder the code.
This patch is a 1:1 copy of upstream slip.c commit f596c87005f7
("slip: not call free_netdev before rtnl_unlock in slip_open").
