Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] test_kmod: Avoid potential double free in trigger_config_run_type()

Reset the member "test_fs" of the test configuration after a call
of the function "kfree_const" to a null pointer so that a double
memory release will not be performed.

Fixes: d9c6a72d6fa2 ("kmod: add test driver to stress test the module loader")
