Subject: [PATCH 4/5] test_kmod: fix the lock in register_test_dev_kmod()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

We accidentally just drop the lock twice instead of taking it and then
releasing it. This isn't a big issue unless you are adding more than
one device to test on, and the kmod.sh doesn't do that yet, however
this obviously is the correct thing to do.

Fixes: 39258f448d71 ("kmod: add test driver to stress test the module loader")
