do_coredump() assumes that format_corename() can only fail if
expand_corename() fails and frees cn->corename.  This is not true, for
example cn_print_exe_file() can fail and in this case nobody frees
cn->corename.

Change do_coredump() to always do kfree(cn->corename) after it calls
format_corename() (NULL is fine), change expand_corename() to do nothing
if kmalloc() fails.
