Subject: [PATCH] loader/i386/efi/linux: Avoid a use-after-free in the linuxefi
loader
In some error paths in grub_cmd_linux, the pointer to lh may be
dereferenced after the buffer it points to has been freed. There aren't
any security implications from this because nothing else uses the
allocator after the buffer is freed and before the pointer is
dereferenced, but fix it anyway.
