IPoIB: Avoid free_netdev() BUG when destroying a child interface



We have to release the RTNL before calling free_netdev() so that the
device state has a chance to become NETREG_UNREGISTERED.  Otherwise
when removing a child interface, we hit the BUG() that tests the
device state in free_netdev().
