tipc: fix memory leak during module removal
When the TIPC module is removed, the tasklet handler is disabled before all other subsystems. This will cause lingering publications in the name table because the node_down tasklets responsible to clean up publications from an unreachable node will never run. When the name table is shut down, these publications are detected and an error message is logged: tipc: nametbl_stop(): orphaned hash chain detected This is actually a memory leak, introduced with commit 993b858e37b3120ee76d9957a901cca22312ffaa ("tipc: correct the order of stopping services at rmmod") Instead of just logging an error and leaking memory, we free the orphaned entries during nametable shutdown.
