When bpf_prog is removed from kallsyms it's on the way
out to be removed, so we don't care about lnode state.
However the bpf_ksym_del will be used also by bpf_trampoline
and bpf_dispatcher objects, which stay allocated even when
they are not in kallsyms list, hence the lnode re-init.
The list_del_rcu commentary states that we need to call
synchronize_rcu, before we can change/re-init the list_head
pointers.
