uprobes: Decouple return_instance list traversal and freeing

free_ret_instance() has two unrelated responsibilities: actually
cleaning up return_instance's resources and freeing memory, and also
helping with utask->return_instances list traversal by returning the
next alive pointer.

There is no reason why these two aspects have to be mixed together, so
turn free_ret_instance() into void-returning function and make callers
do list traversal on their own.

We'll use this simplification in the next patch that will guarantee that
to-be-freed return_instance isn't reachable from utask->return_instances
list.
