[PATCH net] sit: do not call ipip6_dev_free() from sit_init_net()

From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>

From: Eric Dumazet <redacted>

ipip6_dev_free is sit dev->priv_destructor, already called
by register_netdevice() if something goes wrong.

Alternative would be to make ipip6_dev_free() robust against
multiple invocations, but other drivers do not implement this
strategy.
