driver: ipvlan: Free ipvl_port directly with kfree instead of kfree_rcu
There are two functions which would free the ipvl_port now. The first is ipvlan_port_create. It frees the ipvl_port in the error handler, so it could kfree it directly. The second is ipvlan_port_destroy. It invokes netdev_rx_handler_unregister which enforces one grace period by synchronize_net firstly, so it also could kfree the ipvl_port directly and safely. So it is unnecessary to use kfree_rcu to free ipvl_port. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng <fgao@ikuai8.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
