Subject: livepatch: Remove custom kobject state handling
Git-commit: 4d141ab3416d90f87775f5dee725efdf40110a8f
Patch-mainline: v5.2-rc1
References: bsc#1071995

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.
