Subject: [PATCH V2 2/3] livepatch: free klp_patch object without holding klp_mutex
kobject_del() is called from kobject_put(), and after the klp_patch
kobject is deleted, any show()/store() are done.
Once the klp_patch object is removed from list and prepared for
releasing, no need to hold the global mutex of klp_mutex, so
move the freeing outside of klp_mutex.
