kmemleak detects the following memory leak when hot removing
a network device:
unreferenced object 0xffff888083f63600 (size 256):
comm "kworker/0:1", pid 12, jiffies 4294831717 (age 1113.676s)

rndis_filter_device_add() allocates an instance of struct rndis_device
which never gets deallocated and rndis_filter_device_remove() sets
net_device->extension which points to the rndis_device struct to NULL
without ever freeing the structure first, leaving it dangling.
This patch fixes this by freeing the structure before setting
net_device->extension to NULL

The struct rndis_device *should* be freed in free_netvsc_device_rcu()
==> free_netvsc_device():
static void free_netvsc_device(struct rcu_head *head)
{
struct netvsc_device *nvdev
= container_of(head, struct netvsc_device, rcu);
int i;
kfree(nvdev->extension);
So we no longer free it in the rndis_filter_device_remove().
But, the commit 02400fcee2542ee334a2394e0d9f6efd969fe782 did
have a bug:
Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2018 15:03:03 -0700
[PATCH] hv_netvsc: use RCU to fix concurrent rx and queue changes
It should have removed the following line when moving the free() to
free_netvsc_device():
> net_dev->extension = NULL;
Then, the leak of rndis_dev will be fixed. I suggested you to fix it in this
way.
Thanks,

That is one way, but maybe safer to just remove the line that sets
extension to NULL. That way netvsc_device_remove will clean it up:
netvsc_device_remove -> free_netvsc_device_rcu -> free_netvsc_device.
