v5:

- Adopt Petr's suggested combined __klp_shadow_get_or_attach() routine
- API
  - s/klp_shadow_attach/klp_shadow_alloc/g
  - s/klp_shadow_get_or_attach/klp_shadow_get_or_alloc/g
  - s/klp_shadow_detach/klp_shadow_free/g
  - remove klp_shadow_update_or_attach()
- Code comments
  - Add Petr's description for klp_shadow_get_or_alloc()
  - Swap paragraphs in klp_shadow_alloc() description
  - Add short description of klp_shadow_lock
  - Remove incorrect klp_shadow_lock comment in klp_shadow_match() and
    klp_shadow_set()
  - Add a use-after-free disclaimer to klp_shadow_free() and
    klp_shadow_free_all()
- Samples: Fix use-after-free in memory leak fix modules
- Doc: Simplify code in sta_info_free() use-case
