Subject: [PATCH] audit: free module name

Reset the type of the record last as the helper `audit_free_module()`
depends on it.

unreferenced object 0xffff888153b707f0 (size 16):
comm "modprobe", pid 1319, jiffies 4295110033 (age 1083.016s)
hex dump (first 16 bytes):
62 69 6e 66 6d 74 5f 6d 69 73 63 00 6b 6b 6b a5 binfmt_misc.kkk.
backtrace:
[<ffffffffa07dbf9b>] kstrdup+0x2b/0x50
[<ffffffffa04b0a9d>] __audit_log_kern_module+0x4d/0xf0

Fixes: 12c5e81d3fd0 ("audit: prepare audit_context for use in calling contexts beyond syscalls")

Thanks Christian, I just merged this into audit/stable-5.19 and I'll
send this up to Linus as soon as the automated tests finish their
