3.2.62-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit a4b70a07ed12a71131cab7adce2ce91c71b37060 ]
Nothing cleans up the objects created by
vnet_new(), they are completely leaked.
vnet_exit(), after doing the vio_unregister_driver() to clean
up ports, should call a helper function that iterates over vnet_list
and cleans up those objects. This includes unregister_netdevice()
as well as free_netdev().
