[ Upstream commit 531705a765493655472c993627106e19f7e5a6d2 ]

When following tests are performed, it will cause dev reference counting
leakage.
a)ip link add bond2 type bond mode balance-rr
b)ip link set bond2 up
c)ifenslave -f bond2 rose1
d)ip link del bond2

When new bond device is created, the default type of the bond device is
ether. And the bond device is up, lapbeth_device_event() receives the
message and creates a new lapbeth device. In this case, the reference
count value of dev is hold once. But after "ifenslave -f bond2 rose1"
command is executed, the type of the bond device is changed to rose. When
the bond device is unregistered, lapbeth_device_event() will not put the
dev reference count.
