Jason Miu 6b0dd42d76 kho: remove finalize state and clients
Eliminate the `kho_finalize()` function and its associated state from the
KHO subsystem.  The transition to a radix tree for memory tracking makes
the explicit "finalize" state and its serialization step obsolete.

Remove the `kho_finalize()` and `kho_finalized()` APIs and their stub
implementations.  Update KHO client code and the debugfs interface to no
longer call or depend on the `kho_finalize()` mechanism.

Complete the move towards a stateless KHO, simplifying the overall design
by removing unnecessary state management.
