net: ipmr, ip6mr: fix vif/tunnel failure race condition

Since (at least) commit b17a7c17 ("[NET]: Do sysfs registration as
part of register_netdevice."), netdev_run_todo() deals only with
unregistration, so we don't need to do the rtnl_unlock/lock cycle to
finish registration when failing pimreg or dvmrp device creation. In
fact that opens a race condition where someone can delete the device
while rtnl is unlocked because it's fully registered. The problem gets
worse when netlink support is introduced as there are more points of entry
that can cause it and it also makes reusing that code correctly impossible.
