During removing a bridge device, if the bridge is still up, a new mdb entry
still can be added in br_multicast_add_group() after all mdb entries are
removed in br_multicast_dev_del(). Like the path:
mld_ifc_timer_expire ->
mld_sendpack -> ...
br_multicast_rcv ->
br_multicast_add_group
The new mp's timer will be set up. If the timer expires after the bridge
is freed, it may cause use-after-free panic in br_multicast_group_expired.

Nikolay also found it would cause a memory leak - the mdb hash is
reallocated and not freed due to the mdb rehash.

This could happen when ip link remove a bridge or destroy a netns with a
bridge device inside.
With Nikolay's suggestion, this patch is to clean up bridge multicast in
ndo_uninit after bridge dev is shutdown, instead of br_dev_delete, so
that netif_running check in br_multicast_add_group can avoid this issue.
v1->v2:
- fix this issue by moving br_multicast_dev_del to ndo_uninit, instead
of calling dev_close in br_dev_delete.
