Subject: [PATCH 4.19 135/139] lib/test_kmod.c: fix rmmod double free

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Luis Chamberlain <mcgrof@...nel.org>

commit 5618cf031fecda63847cafd1091e7b8bd626cdb1 upstream.

We free the misc device string twice on rmmod; fix this.  Without this
we cannot remove the module without crashing.
