netvsc: fix error unwind on device setup failure
If setting receive buffer fails, the error unwind would cause kernel panic because it was not correctly doing RCU and NAPI unwind. RCU'd pointer needs to be reset to NULL, and NAPI needs to be disabled not deleted. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
