------------------ From: Devendra Naga <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit ad1be8d345416a794dea39761a374032aa471a76 ] when register_netdev fails, the init'ed NAPIs by netif_napi_add must be deleted with netif_napi_del, and also when driver unloads, it should delete the NAPI before unregistering netdevice using unregister_netdev.
