Currently setup_graphics() ignores the return value of efi_setup_gop(). As
AllocatePool() does not zero out memory the screen information table will
contain random data in this case.

We should free the screen information table if efi_setup_gop() returns an
error code.

Thanks Heinrich

I will take this as a fix

efi/libstub: Avoid returning uninitialized data from setup_graphics()

Currently, setup_graphics() ignores the return value of efi_setup_gop(). As
AllocatePool() does not zero out memory, the screen information table will
contain uninitialized data in this case.

We should free the screen information table if efi_setup_gop() returns an
error code.
