Only one form element is allowed in a page even if we are using a combination of master page and content page. You can remove tag from the child page since already your master page contains the form tag and it will work .

You should add the form to your masterpage like this:

<head runat="server">
 <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="head" runat="server">
    </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</head>

<body>
  <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <uc1:Menu runat="server" ID="Menu" />
    <div>
        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
    </div>
  </form>
</body>

Your Usercontrol should look like this (no need for form tag):

<asp:LinkButton ID="link_logout" Text="Logout" OnClick="link_logout_Click" runat="server" />
