sched: more robust sd-sysctl entry freeing

It occurred to me this morning that the procname field was dynamically
allocated and needed to be freed.  I started to put in break statements
when allocation failed but it was approaching 50% error handling code.

I came up with this alternative of looping while entry->mode is set and
checking proc_handler instead of ->table.  Alternatively, the string
version of the domain name and cpu number could be stored the structs.

I verified by compiling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and checking the allocation
counts after taking a cpuset exclusive and back.
