[PATCH 3/3] efivars: If pstore_register fails, free unneeded pstore buffer

[Lenny Szubowicz]

This is patch 3/3 of a patch set that cleans up pstore_register failure paths.

If efivars fails to register with pstore, there is no point to keeping
the 4 KB buffer around. It's only used by the pstore read/write routines.
