xfrm interface: avoid corruption on changelink
The new parameters must not be stored in the netdev_priv() before
validation, it may corrupt the interface. Note also that if data is NULL,
only a memset() is done.
$ ip link add xfrm1 type xfrm dev lo if_id 1
$ ip link add xfrm2 type xfrm dev lo if_id 2
$ ip link set xfrm1 type xfrm dev lo if_id 2
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
$ ip -d link list dev xfrm1
