Masami Hiramatsu (Google) 8cf2f40ceb fprobe: Fix module reference count leak on error in register_fprobe()
In register_fprobe(), get_ips_from_filter() resolves target function
addresses and increments module reference counts via try_module_get() for
symbols in kernel modules. If get_ips_from_filter() fails on the second
pass and returns an error, register_fprobe() returned directly without
releasing module references acquired up to that point.

Fix this by ensuring the cleanup loop executing module_put() runs even when
get_ips_from_filter() returns a negative error.
