Jiang Liu 55ca6140e9 kprobes: fix a memory leak in function pre_handler_kretprobe()
In function pre_handler_kretprobe(), the allocated kretprobe_instance
object will get leaked if the entry_handler callback returns non-zero.
This may cause all the preallocated kretprobe_instance objects exhausted.

This issue can be reproduced by changing
samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c to probe "mutex_unlock".  And the fix
is straightforward: just put the allocated kretprobe_instance object back
onto the free_instances list.
