NAME
       __dev_remove_pack - remove packet handler

SYNOPSIS
       void __dev_remove_pack(struct packet_type * pt);

ARGUMENTS
       pt
           packet type declaration

DESCRIPTION
       Remove a protocol handler that was previously added to the kernel protocol handlers by
       dev_add_pack. The passed packet_type is removed from the kernel lists and can be freed or
       reused once this function returns.

       The packet type might still be in use by receivers and must not be freed until after all
       the CPU's have gone through a quiescent state.
