kernel: param: rename locate_module_kobject
[ Upstream commit bbc9462f0cb0c8917a4908e856731708f0cee910 ] The locate_module_kobject() function looks up an existing module_kobject for a given module name. If it cannot find the corresponding module_kobject, it creates one for the given name. This commit renames locate_module_kobject() to lookup_or_create_module_kobject() to better describe its operations. This doesn't change anything functionality wise.
