Petr Mladek 4d141ab341 livepatch: Remove custom kobject state handling
kobject_init() always succeeds and sets the reference count to 1.
It allows to always free the structures via kobject_put() and
the related release callback.

Note that the custom kobject state handling was used only
because we did not know that kobject_put() can and actually
should get called even when kobject_init_and_add() fails.

The patch should not change the existing behavior.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
