This patch fixes ordering of rtnl notifications during unregister_netdevice by moving RTM_DELLINK notification to until after ndo_uninit. The problem was seen with unregistering bond netdevices. bond ndo_uninit callback generates a few RTM_NEWLINK notifications for NETDEV_CHANGEADDR and NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE. This is seen mostly when the bond is deleted with slaves still enslaved to the bond. During unregister netdevice (rollback_registered_many to be specific) bond ndo_uninit is called after RTM_DELLINK notification goes out. This results in userspace seeing RTM_DELLINK followed by a couple of RTM_NEWLINK's. In userspace problem was seen with libnl. libnl cache deletes the bond when it sees RTM_DELLINK and re-adds the bond with the following RTM_NEWLINK. Resulting in a stale bond entry in libnl cache when the kernel has already deleted the bond. This patch has been tested for bond, bridges and vlan devices.
