module: don't call percpu_modfree on NULL pointer.
The general one handles NULL, the static obsolescent (CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA) one in module.c doesn't; Eric's commit 720eba31 assumed it did, and various frobbings since then kept that assumption. All other callers in module.c all protect it with an if; this effectively does the same as free_init is only goto if we fail percpu_modalloc().
