There are multiple issues here:
1. After freeing dev->ax25_ptr, we need to set it to NULL otherwise
we may use a dangling pointer.
2. There is a race between ax25_setsockopt() and device notifier as
reported by syzbot. Close it by holding RTNL lock.
3. We need to test if dev->ax25_ptr is NULL before using it.
