ima: Free IMA measurement buffer on error

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit 6d14c65178 ]

IMA allocates kernel virtual memory to carry forward the measurement
list, from the current kernel to the next kernel on kexec system call,
in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function.  In error code paths this memory
is not freed resulting in memory leak.

Free the memory allocated for the IMA measurement list in
the error code paths in ima_add_kexec_buffer() function.
