Modules: fix memory leak of module names
Due to the change in kobject name handling, the module kobject needs to
have a null release function to ensure that the name it previously set
will be properly cleaned up.
All of this wierdness goes away in 2.6.25 with the rework of the kobject
name and cleanup logic, but this is required for 2.6.24.
Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding the problem, and to Kay Sievers
for pointing out the simple way to fix it after I tried many complex
ways.
