macvlan: remove one synchronize_rcu() call
When one macvlan device is dismantled, we can avoid one synchronize_rcu() call done after deletion from hash list, since caller will perform a synchronize_net() call after its ndo_stop() call. Add a new netdev->dismantle field to signal this dismantle intent. Reduces RTNL hold time.
