[IPV4]: Fix memory leak in inet_hashtables.h when NUMA is on

The inet_ehash_locks_alloc() looks like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA
	if (size > PAGE_SIZE)
		x = vmalloc(...);
	else
#endif
		x = kmalloc(...);

Unlike it, the inet_ehash_locks_alloc() looks like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA
	if (size > PAGE_SIZE)
		vfree(x);
	else
#else
		kfree(x);
#endif

The error is obvious - if the NUMA is on and the size
is less than the PAGE_SIZE we leak the pointer (kfree is
inside the #else branch).

Compiler doesn't warn us because after the kfree(x) there's
a "x = NULL" assignment, so here's another (minor?) bug: we 
don't set x to NULL under certain circumstances.

Boring explanation, I know... Patch explains it better.
