Can this leak new_hash? If hash_sub() succeeds for both filter_hash
and new_hash, but then either unregister_ftrace_function() or
ftrace_update_ops() fails below, we goto out_unlock without freeing
new_hash. The cleanup code only frees filter_hash:

If err != 0, new_hash remains allocated but is never freed. Should the
cleanup code add free_ftrace_hash(new_hash) when it's non-NULL?
