efi/esrt: Fix reference count leak in esre_create_sysfs_entry.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1885932

[ Upstream commit 4ddf4739 ]

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 "b8eb7183" fixed a similar problem.
