[PATCH net] vxlan: fix ovs support

[PATCH net] vxlan: fix ovs support

[Nicolas Dichtel]

The required changes in the function vxlan_dev_create() were missing
in commit 8bcdc4f3a20b.
The vxlan device is not registered anymore after this patch and the error
path causes an stack dump:
 WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1498 at net/core/dev.c:6713 rollback_registered_many+0x9d/0x3f0

Fixes: 8bcdc4f3a20b ("vxlan: add changelink support")
