This test is reversed so the memory is always leaked.  It's better style
to remove the test anyway.

Fixes: 3e403a77779f ('bonding: make it possible to have unlimited nested upper vlans')

Indeed, dunno how I've missed that. And kfree() verifies for the NULL
situation.

Applied, but in the future please make "net-next" submissions explicit by saying
something like "[PATCH net-next] " in your subject.

Thanks.
