Nikolay Aleksandrov 84aeb437ab net: bridge: fix early call to br_stp_change_bridge_id and plug newlink leaks
The early call to br_stp_change_bridge_id in bridge's newlink can cause
a memory leak if an error occurs during the newlink because the fdb
entries are not cleaned up if a different lladdr was specified, also
another minor issue is that it generates fdb notifications with
ifindex = 0. Another unrelated memory leak is the bridge sysfs entries
which get added on NETDEV_REGISTER event, but are not cleaned up in the
newlink error path. To remove this special case the call to
br_stp_change_bridge_id is done after netdev register and we cleanup the
bridge on changelink error via br_dev_delete to plug all leaks.

This patch makes netlink bridge destruction on newlink error the same as
dellink and ioctl del which is necessary since at that point we have a
fully initialized bridge device.

To reproduce the issue:
$ ip l add br0 address 00:11:22:33:44:55 type bridge group_fwd_mask 1
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

$ rmmod bridge
