brcmfmac: fix double free upon register_netdevice() failure

The function brcmf_net_attach() can only fail when register_netdevice()
fails. When this happens register_netdevice() calls priv_destructor, ie.
brcmf_cfg80211_free_netdev() freeing the vif instance. Also upon this
failure brcmf_net_attach() calls free_netdev(). However, callers are also
doing cleanup resulting in double free. In some places they need netdev
private space as it holds parameters to communicate with the device. So
we want to do the cleanup only in callers of brcmf_net_attach() by making
the following changes:

 - set priv_destructor after register_netdevice() succeeds.
 - remove call to free_netdev() in brcmf_net_attach().
 - call free_netdev() in brcmf_net_detach() for unregistered netdev.
 - add free_netdev() if brcmf_net_attach() fails for a created interface.
