Subject: [PATCH] net: sit: Unregister catch-all devices

A sit interface created without a local or a remote address is linked
into the `sit_net::tunnels_wc` list of its original namespace. When
deleting a network namespace, delete the devices that have been moved.

The following script triggers a null pointer dereference if devices
linked in a deleted `sit_net` remain:

    for i in `seq 1 30`; do
        ip netns add ns-test
        ip netns exec ns-test ip link add dev veth0 type veth peer veth1
        ip netns exec ns-test ip link add dev sit$i type sit dev veth0
        ip netns exec ns-test ip link set dev sit$i netns $$
        ip netns del ns-test
    done
    for i in `seq 1 30`; do
        ip link del dev sit$i
    done
