module: don't call percpu_modfree on NULL pointer.

Browse Source 
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().
