The unregister_sysctl_table() function hangs if all references to its
ctl_table_header structure are not dropped.
This can happen sometimes because of a leak in proc_sys_lookup():
proc_sys_lookup() gets a reference to the table via lookup_entry(), but
it does not release it when a subsequent call to sysctl_follow_link()
fails.
This patch fixes this leak by making sure the reference is always
dropped on return.
