=======================================================================

veth_rq allocated in veth_newlink() was not freed on dellink.

We need to free up them after veth_close() so that any packets will not
reference the queues afterwards. Thus free them in veth_dev_free() in
the same way as freeing stats structure (vstats).

Also move queues allocation to veth_dev_init() to be in line with stats
allocation.

Fixes: 638264dc ("veth: Support per queue XDP ring")
