The locate_module_kobject() function looks up an existing
module_kobject for a given module name. If it cannot find the
corresponding module_kobject, it creates one for the given name.
This commit renames locate_module_kobject() to
lookup_or_create_module_kobject() to better describe its operations.
This doesn't change anything functionality wise.
