From: Jianbo Liu <jianbol@nvidia.com>

In cited commit, netdev_tracker_alloc() is called for the newly
allocated xfrm state, but dev_hold() is missed, which causes netdev
reference count imbalance, because netdev_put() is called when the
state is freed in xfrm_dev_state_free(). Fix the issue by replacing
netdev_tracker_alloc() with netdev_hold().
