[ Upstream commit 23569b5652ee8e8e55a12f7835f59af6f3cefc30 ]
kmemleak reports memory leaks in macvlan_common_newlink, as follows:
ip link add link eth0 name .. type macvlan mode source macaddr add
<MAC-ADDR>
kmemleak reports:
unreferenced object 0xffff8880109bb140 (size 64):
comm "ip", pid 284, jiffies 4294986150 (age 430.108s)

In the scenario where the macvlan mode is configured as 'source',
macvlan_changelink_sources() will be execured to reconfigure list of
remote source mac addresses, at the same time, if register_netdevice()
return an error, the resource generated by macvlan_changelink_sources()
is not cleaned up.
Using this patch, in the case of an error, it will execute
macvlan_flush_sources() to ensure that the resource is cleaned up.
