br2684: fix module_put() race
The br2684 code used module_put() during unassignment from vcc with hope that we have BKL. This assumption is no longer true. Now owner field in atmvcc is used to move this module_put() to vcc_destroy_socket(). Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Acked-by: Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@podlesie.net>
