[PATCH net 4/4] bnge: clear bd->netdev on allocation failure

If bnge_netdev_alloc() fails after storing the net_device pointer in
bd->netdev, it calls free_netdev() but leaves bd->netdev as a dangling
pointer.

Explicitly set bd->netdev to NULL on the error path to prevent potential
use-after-free or invalid pointer dereferences.
