When we put down the interface, we call vxlan_stop() -> vxlan_sock_release() there after calling __vxlan_sock_release_prep() we free each socket, the issue is that the vxlan device is still part of each socket's list. When we delete the vxlan interface, vxlan_dellink() is called and there we do: hlist_del_rcu(&vxlan->hlist), which access already freed memory. I'm not too familiar with the vxlan module, so to me a trivial fix like this makes sense.
