Use call_usermodehelper_setup() + call_usermodehelper_exec() instead of
calling call_usermodehelper_fns(). In case the latter returns -ENOMEM
the cleanup function may had not been called - in this case we would
not free argv and module_name.

Changes from v2: remove check for wait == UMH_NO_WAIT since this never happens,
