Drivers: hv: vmbus: avoid double kfree for device_obj

Browse Source 
On driver shutdown device_obj is being freed twice:
1) In vmbus_free_channels()
2) vmbus_device_release() (which is being triggered by device_unregister() in
   vmbus_device_unregister().
This double kfree leads to the following sporadic crash on driver unload:

[   23.469876] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
[   23.470036] Modules linked in: hv_vmbus(-)

[   23.470036] RSP: 0018:ffff880036cebcc8  EFLAGS: 00010246
...

When this crash does not happen on driver unload the similar one is expected if
we try to load hv_vmbus again.

Remove kfree from vmbus_free_channels() as freeing it from
vmbus_device_release() seems right.
