Kuen-Han Tsai ca9ca411bb usb: gadget: u_ether: Add auto-cleanup helper for freeing net_device
[ Upstream commit 0c0981126b ]

The net_device in the u_ether framework currently requires explicit
calls to unregister and free the device.

Introduce gether_unregister_free_netdev() and the corresponding
auto-cleanup macro. This ensures that if a net_device is registered, it
is properly unregistered and the associated work queue is flushed before
the memory is freed.

This is a preparatory patch to simplify error handling paths in gadget
drivers by removing the need for explicit goto labels for net_device
cleanup.

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 reStructuredText 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.
