dynamic debug: move ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module()
The command echo "file ec.c +p" >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control causes an oops. Move the call to ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module(). In this way it should be called from all error paths. Currently, we are missing the remove if the module init routine fails.
