module: Call module notifier on failure after complete_formation()
The module notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_COMING was moved up before the parsing of args, into the complete_formation() call. But if the module failed to load after that, the notifier call chain for MODULE_STATE_GOING was never called and that prevented the users of those call chains from cleaning up anything that was allocated.
