Fix a shadow variable warning in net/core/dev.c when compiled with
CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled. The warning occurs because 'dev' is redeclared
inside the while loop, shadowing the outer scope declaration.

	net/core/dev.c:11211:22: warning: declaration shadows a local variable [-Wshadow]
		struct net_device *dev = list_first_entry(&unlink_list,

	net/core/dev.c:11202:21: note: previous declaration is here
		struct net_device *dev, *tmp;

Remove the redundant declaration since the variable is already defined
in the outer scope and will be overwritten in the subsequent
list_for_each_entry_safe() loop anyway.

Sending this against `net-next` and not using "Fixes:" tag since I don't
think we want this to be backported to stable tree.
