Don't call this mutex, it implies sleeping.

I prefer a goto out and a single place for unlocking.

However, we already take the kmemleak_lock in find_and_remove_object().
So better to open-code that function here and avoid introducing a new
lock. __create_object() may need a new bool argument, no_lock or
something. Or just split it into separate functions for allocating the
kmemleak structure and adding it to the corresponding trees/lists under
a lock.
