net: avoid UAF on deleted altname
Altnames are accessed under RCU (dev_get_by_name_rcu()) but freed by kfree() with no synchronization point. Each node has one or two allocations (node and a variable-size name, sometimes the name is netdev->name). Adding rcu_heads here is a bit tedious. Besides most code which unlists the names already has rcu barriers - so take the simpler approach of adding synchronize_rcu(). Note that the one on the unregistration path (which matters more) is removed by the next fix.
