openvswitch: defer tunnel netdev_put to RCU release

Browse Source 
ovs_netdev_tunnel_destroy() may run after NETDEV_UNREGISTER already
detached the device. Dropping the netdev reference in destroy can race
with concurrent readers that still observe vport->dev.

Do not release vport->dev in ovs_netdev_tunnel_destroy(). Instead, let
vport_netdev_free() drop the reference from the RCU callback, matching
the non-tunnel destroy path and avoiding additional synchronization
under RTNL.

Fixes: a9020fde67 ("openvswitch: Move tunnel destroy function to oppenvswitch module.")
