My previous commit introduced a memory leak where the item allocated
from tlmi_setting was not freed.
This commit also renames it to avoid confusion with the similarly name
variable in the same function.

Fixes: 8a02d70679fc ("platform/x86: think-lmi: Add possible_values for ThinkStation")
Reported-by: Mirsad Todorovac <mirsad.todorovac@alu.unizg.hr>
