efi/esrt: Fix reference count leak in esre_create_sysfs_entry.
kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails. If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to properly clean up the memory associated with the object. Previous commit "b8eb718348b8" fixed a similar problem.
