ppp: unlock all_ppp_mutex before registering device
ppp_dev_uninit(), which is the .ndo_uninit() handler of PPP devices,
needs to lock pn->all_ppp_mutex. Therefore we mustn't call
register_netdevice() with pn->all_ppp_mutex already locked, or we'd
deadlock in case register_netdevice() fails and calls .ndo_uninit().
Fortunately, we can unlock pn->all_ppp_mutex before calling
register_netdevice(). This lock protects pn->units_idr, which isn't
used in the device registration process.
However, keeping pn->all_ppp_mutex locked during device registration
did ensure that no device in transient state would be published in
pn->units_idr. In practice, unlocking it before calling
register_netdevice() doesn't change this property: ppp_unit_register()
is called with 'ppp_mutex' locked and all searches done in
pn->units_idr hold this lock too.
