vxlan: Fix kernel panic on device delete.
On vxlan device create if socket create fails vxlan device is not added to hash table. Therefore we need to check if device is in hashtable before we delete it from hlist. Following patch avoid the crash. net-next already has this fix. ---8<--- BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<ffffffffa05f9ca7>] vxlan_dellink+0x77/0xf0 [vxlan] PGD 42b2d9067 PUD 42e04c067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: vxlan(-) Hardware name: Dell Inc.
