[IFB]: Fix crash on input device removal
The input_device pointer is not refcounted, which means the device may disappear while packets are queued, causing a crash when ifb passes packets with a stale skb->dev pointer to netif_rx(). Fix by storing the interface index instead and do a lookup where neccessary. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Acked-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Signed-off-by: David S.
