- Free an rproc handle that was allocated by rproc_alloc.
This function essentially unrolls rproc_alloc(), by decrementing the
rproc's refcount. It doesn't directly free rproc; that would happen

After rproc_del() returns, @rproc is still valid, and its

Returns 0 on success and -EINVAL if @rproc isn't valid.
