[PATCH 4.19 08/61] net: openvswitch: do not free vport if register_netdevice() is failed.

[ Upstream commit 309b66970ee2abf721ecd0876a48940fa0b99a35 ]

In order to create an internal vport, internal_dev_create() is used and
that calls register_netdevice() internally.
If register_netdevice() fails, it calls dev->priv_destructor() to free
private data of netdev. actually, a private data of this is a vport.

Hence internal_dev_create() should not free and use a vport after failure
of register_netdevice().

Test command
ovs-dpctl add-dp bonding_masters
