Subject[PATCH net v6 3/3] ax25: Fix reference count leak issues of net_device
Date
The ax25_dev_device_down() exists reference count leak issues of
the object "net_device". When the ax25 device is shutting down.
The ax25_dev_device_down() drops the reference count of net_device
one or zero times depending on if we goto unlock_put or not, which
will cause memory leak.

In order to solve the above issue, decrease the reference count of
net_device after dev->ax25_ptr is set to null.

Fixes: d01ffb9eee4a ("ax25: add refcount in ax25_dev to avoid UAF bugs")
