net: Fix null de-reference of device refcount

In event of failure during register_netdevice, free_netdev is
invoked immediately. free_netdev assumes that all the netdevice
refcounts have been dropped prior to it being called and as a
result frees and clears out the refcount pointer.

However, this is not necessarily true as some of the operations
in the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier handlers queue RCU callbacks for
invocation after a grace period. The IPv4 callback in_dev_rcu_put
tries to access the refcount after free_netdev is called which
leads to a null de-reference-

Fix this by waiting for the completion of the call_rcu() in
case of register_netdevice errors.
