We alreay did some cleanup jobs before mark this dev is not a port of bridge (dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_BRIDGE_PORT),
such as remove the fdb related to this port(br_fdb_delete_by_port).

and seems like after these cleanup jobs, before unregister this device, if new skb is received,
br_handle_local_finish will call br_fdb_update to create a new fdb whose dst points to the will-be-destroied-port.

I don't know if this will cause some problems.
seems we should also make sure port is unavailable before we do cleanup.
