Subject: [PATCH v3] ftrace: Fix possible warning on checking all pages used in ftrace_process_locs()

As comments in ftrace_process_locs(), there may be NULL pointers in
mcount_loc section:
 > Some architecture linkers will pad between
 > the different mcount_loc sections of different
 > object files to satisfy alignments.
 > Skip any NULL pointers.

After commit 20e5227e9f55 ("ftrace: allow NULL pointers in mcount_loc"),
NULL pointers will be accounted when allocating ftrace pages but skipped
before adding into ftrace pages, this may result in some pages not being
used. Then after commit 706c81f87f84 ("ftrace: Remove extra helper
functions"), warning may occur at:
  WARN_ON(pg->next);

To fix it, only warn for case that no pointers skipped but pages not used
up, then free those unused pages after releasing ftrace_lock.

Changes v2 -> v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230711201630.1837109-1-zhengyejian1@huawei.com/
  - Check NULL for 'pg->next' before assigning it to variable 'pg_unuse'

Changes v1 -> v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230710104625.421c851a@gandalf.local.home/
  - As suggested by Steve, only warn for case that no pointers skipped
    but pages not used up then free those unused pages. But I move the
    free process after releasing ftrace_lock.
