Mohammed Gamal d391b5c4b1 hv_netvsc: Fix memory leak when removing rndis device
[ Upstream commit 536dc5df2808efbefc5acee334d3c4f701790ec0 ]

kmemleak detects the following memory leak when hot removing
a network device:

unreferenced object 0xffff888083f63600 (size 256):
  comm "kworker/0:1", pid 12, jiffies 4294831717 (age 1113.676s)
  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

rndis_filter_device_add() allocates an instance of struct rndis_device
which never gets deallocated as rndis_filter_device_remove() sets
net_device->extension which points to the rndis_device struct to NULL,
leaving the rndis_device dangling.

Since net_device->extension is eventually freed in free_netvsc_device(),
we refrain from setting it to NULL inside rndis_filter_device_remove()

README

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.
