We can create a vxlan device with an explicit underlying carrier.
In that case, when the carrier link is being deleted from the
system (e.g. due to module unload) we should also clean up all
created vxlan devices on top of it since otherwise we're in an
inconsistent state in vxlan device. In that case, the user needs
to remove all such devices, while in case of other virtual devs
that sit on top of physical ones, it is usually the case that
these devices do unregister automatically as well and do not
leave the burden on the user.

This work is not necessary when vxlan device was not created with
a real underlying device, as connections can resume in that case
when driver is plugged again. But at least for the other cases,
we should go ahead and do the cleanup on removal.

`ip -d link show vxlan13` after carrier removal before this patch:

5: vxlan13: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1450 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default
    link/ether 1e:47:da:6d:4d:99 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
    vxlan id 13 group 239.0.0.10 dev 2 port 32768 61000 ageing 300
                                 ^^^^^
While at it, we should also use vxlan_dellink() handler in
vxlan_exit_net() as otherwise we seem to leak memory on module
unload since only half of the cleanup is being done.

So it makes sense to move the notifier register to vxlan_newlink()
from vxlan_init_module()?

This is not necessary at all, it is known that netdev notication
holds rtnl lock.

I think you need to flush fdb as well?

Why these changes in vxlan_exit_net()?

That is probably a design descision ... I didn't want to bloat the
struct vxlan_dev, and by this approach, we can simply batch removals
through unregister_netdevice_many(), that's all.

We're not in fast-path, and if someone would call that function outside
of the notifier chain, it might be good to check if the lock was taken,
but if there's a strong opinion to not have that, I'll just remove it.

Seems this is not done through normal rtnl_ops->dellink(); vxlan_dellink()
is what we call there as well ...

I think this is way cleaner; instead of only doing half the work, we
should remove it in the same way as we remove devices through normal
rtnl ops. In case we would do allocations in future that are being
freed during vxlan_dellink(), we would simply leak them here otherwise.

The issue is generic to all tunnels

First, the standard way to do this is ASSERT_RTNL()

Second, it is unnecessary. The function is local, only called through
notifier and notifiers always have RTNL held.

Ok, this is being flushed during ndo_stop().

Ok, I'll just remove it, and resend if you're fine with this.
