There are UAF bugs in ax25_send_control(), when we call ax25_release()
to deallocate ax25_dev. The possible race condition is shown below:

      (Thread 1)              |     (Thread 2)
ax25_dev_device_up() //(1)    |
                              | ax25_kill_by_device()
ax25_bind()          //(2)    |
ax25_connect()                | ...
 ax25->state = AX25_STATE_1   |
 ...                          | ax25_dev_device_down() //(3)

      (Thread 3)
ax25_release()                |
 ax25_dev_put()  //(4) FREE   |
 case AX25_STATE_1:           |
  ax25_send_control()         |
   alloc_skb()       //USE    |

The refcount of ax25_dev increases in position (1) and (2), and
decreases in position (3) and (4). The ax25_dev will be freed
before dereference sites in ax25_send_control().

The following is part of the report:

This patch defers the free operation of ax25_dev and net_device after
all corresponding dereference sites in ax25_release() to avoid UAF.
