mm: kmemleak: fix delete_object_*() race when called on the same memory block 

Calling delete_object_*() on the same pointer is not a standard use case
(unless there is a bug in the code calling kmemleak_free()).  However,
during kmemleak disabling (error or user triggered via /sys), there is a
potential race between kmemleak_free() calls on a CPU and
__kmemleak_do_cleanup() on a different CPU.

The current delete_object_*() implementation first performs a look-up
holding kmemleak_lock, increments the object->use_count and then
re-acquires kmemleak_lock to remove the object from object_tree_root and
object_list.

This patch simplifies the delete_object_*() mechanism to both look up
and remove an object from the object_tree_root and object_list
atomically (guarded by kmemleak_lock).  This allows safe concurrent
calls to delete_object_*() on the same pointer without additional
locking for synchronising the kmemleak_free_enabled flag.

A side effect is a slight improvement in the delete_object_*() performance
by avoiding acquiring kmemleak_lock twice and incrementing/decrementing
object->use_count.
