The net_device in the u_ether framework currently requires explicit
calls to unregister and free the device.
Introduce gether_unregister_free_netdev() and the corresponding
auto-cleanup macro. This ensures that if a net_device is registered, it
is properly unregistered and the associated work queue is flushed before
the memory is freed.
This is a preparatory patch to simplify error handling paths in gadget
drivers by removing the need for explicit goto labels for net_device
cleanup.
