[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 088/110] module: Call module notifier on failure after complete_formation()

[Luis Henriques]

3.16.7-ckt13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt at goodmis.org>

commit 37815bf866ab6722a47550f8d25ad3f1a16a680c upstream.

The module notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_COMING was moved up before
the parsing of args, into the complete_formation() call. But if the module failed
to load after that, the notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_GOING was
never called and that prevented the users of those call chains from
cleaning up anything that was allocated.
