bonding: Do not call free_netdev for already registered device.
If the call to bond_create_sysfs_entry in bond_create fails, the
proper rollback is to call unregister_netdevice, not free_netdev.
Otherwise - kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:4057!
Checked with artificial failures injected into bond_create_sysfs_entry.
Pavel's original patch modified by Jay Vosburgh to move code around
for clarity (remove goto-hopping within the unwind block).
