adpt is netdev private data and it cannot be
used after free_netdev() call. Using adpt after free_netdev()
can cause UAF bug. Fix it by moving free_netdev() at the end of the
function.

Please spell out what "UAF" means, thanks.  If you fix that, then

Hi, Timur!

Thank you for feedback. 


David has already applied this pacth. So, should I send v2 or maybe
revert + v2? I haven't been in such situations yet :)




With regards,
