I considered about this solution, I am not sure if it is safe to move the
freeing from destructors into ndo_uninit.
Because when the free action is done in ndo_uninit, it is earlier than
destructor. 
I am not sure if it break the design of original driver.

I just tested the team driver before. It is ok to free all mems in
ndo_uninit.
Is it possible that anyone are using the net_dev after ndo_uninit ?

If no one, i would like to update the patch. 
Could you give me some guide please?

Feng
