kmod: split call to call_usermodehelper_fns()

Browse Source 
Use call_usermodehelper_setup() + call_usermodehelper_exec() instead of
calling call_usermodehelper_fns().  In case the latter returns -ENOMEM the
cleanup function may had not been called - in this case we would not free
argv and module_name.
