How about this? I moved the code back into vlan_device_event() since
its now only a very minimal change to the original code.

vlan-orig.diff contains the diff between the original code and the
code after this patch for reference.
I have no problem with this solution, but I wonder why you re-added the curious

			/* unregistration of last vlan destroys group, abort
			 * afterwards */
			if (grp->nr_vlans == 1)
				i = VLAN_GROUP_ARRAY_LEN;

			unregister_vlan_dev(vlandev, &list);

while doing

	unregister_vlan_dev(vlandev, &list);
	if (grp->nr_vlans == 0)
		break;

seems more natural :)
Indeed, but unregister_vlan_dev() destroys the group once the
count has reached zero, so we must not access it after that.
