[PATCH net] net: dsa: Unregister slave_dev in error path

With commit 0071f56e46da ("dsa: Register netdev before phy"), we are now trying
to unregister a network device that has been previously registered, and in case
of errors, this will make us hit the BUG_ON(dev->reg_state !=
NETREG_UNREGISTERED) condition.

Fix this by adding a missing unregister_netdev() before free_netdev().
