wifi: mac80211: unlist vifs when their netdev is unregistered

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: mac80211: unlist vifs when their netdev is unregistered

mac80211 only removes vifs from the local->interfaces list when
an interface is removed via ieee80211_if_remove(), before it
unregisters the netdev. However, it's possible for a netdev to
be unregistered without going through that: When the netns that
holds the wiphy is destroyed, the wiphy is supposed to move to
the init_ns, but that can run into allocation failures.

Then, mac80211 has an interface listed that doesn't exist, and
will eventually hit

  BUG: failure at net/wireless/core.h:141/wiphy_to_rdev()!

Remove the interface from the list in ->ndo_uninit if it's still
around to avoid this.
