6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 5736aa9537c9b8927dec32d3d47c8c31fe560f62 upstream.
attr_name_kobj's memory allocation is done with mutex_lock() held, this is not needed.
Move allocation outside of mutex_lock() so unlock is not needed when allocation fails.
