Fix a race in the xsk socket teardown code that can lead to a null
pointer dereference splat. The current xsk unbind code in
xsk_unbind_dev() starts by setting xs->state to XSK_UNBOUND, sets
xs->dev to NULL and then waits for any NAPI processing to terminate
using synchronize_net(). After that, the release code starts to tear
down the socket state and free allocated memory.
