xfrm: Fix crash observed during device unregistration and decryption
A crash is observed when a decrypted packet is processed in receive
path. get_rps_cpus() tries to dereference the skb->dev fields but it
appears that the device is freed from the poison pattern.

Following are the sequence of events observed -
- Encrypted packet in receive path from netdevice is queued
- Encrypted packet queued for decryption (asynchronous)
- Netdevice brought down and freed
- Packet is decrypted and returned through callback in esp_input_done
- Packet is queued again for process in network stack using netif_rx
Since the device appears to have been freed, the dereference of
skb->dev in get_rps_cpus() leads to an unhandled page fault
exception.
Fix this by holding on to device reference when queueing packets
asynchronously and releasing the reference on call back return.
v2: Make the change generic to xfrm as mentioned by Steffen and
update the title to xfrm
