Taehee Yoo 309b66970e net: openvswitch: do not free vport if register_netdevice() is failed.
In order to create an internal vport, internal_dev_create() is used and
that calls register_netdevice() internally.
If register_netdevice() fails, it calls dev->priv_destructor() to free
private data of netdev. actually, a private data of this is a vport.

Hence internal_dev_create() should not free and use a vport after failure
of register_netdevice().

Test command
    ovs-dpctl add-dp bonding_masters

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
