[STRIP]: Fix neighbour table refcount leak.
Found by inspection. The STRIP driver does neigh_lookup() but never releases. This driver shouldn't being doing gratuitous arp anyway. Untested, obviously, because of lack of hardware. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
