livepatch: Nullify obj->mod in klp_module_coming()'s error path
klp_module_coming() is called for every module appearing in the system. It sets obj->mod to a patched module for klp_object obj. Unfortunately it leaves it set even if an error happens later in the function and the patched module is not allowed to be loaded. klp_is_object_loaded() uses obj->mod variable and could currently give a wrong return value. The bug is probably harmless as of now.
