Taehee Yoo 7c31e54aee vxlan: do not destroy fdb if register_netdevice() is failed
__vxlan_dev_create() destroys FDB using specific pointer which indicates
a fdb when error occurs.
But that pointer should not be used when register_netdevice() fails because
register_netdevice() internally destroys fdb when error occurs.

This patch makes vxlan_fdb_create() to do not link fdb entry to vxlan dev
internally.
Instead, a new function vxlan_fdb_insert() is added to link fdb to vxlan
dev.

vxlan_fdb_insert() is called after calling register_netdevice().
This routine can avoid situation that ->ndo_uninit() destroys fdb entry
in error path of register_netdevice().
Hence, error path of __vxlan_dev_create() routine can have an opportunity
to destroy default fdb entry by hand.

Test command
    ip link add bonding_masters type vxlan id 0 group 239.1.1.1 \
	    dev enp0s9 dstport 4789

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
