The function free_module in file kernel/module.c as follow:

void free_module(struct module *mod) {
	......
	module_arch_cleanup(mod);
	......
	module_arch_freeing_init(mod);
	......
}

Both module_arch_cleanup and module_arch_freeing_init function
would free the mod->arch.init_unw_table, which cause double free.

Here, set mod->arch.init_unw_table = NULL after remove the unwind
table to avoid double free.

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read:
    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html
for how to do this properly.
