hostap: Fix outdated comment about dev->destructor
After commit cf124db566e6 ("net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state."), setting 'dev->needs_free_netdev' ensures device data is released, and 'dev->destructor' is not used anymore. Fixes: cf124db566e6 ("net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.") Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
