Abdun Nihaal fafb2e0874 fbdev: efifb: fix memory leak in efifb_probe() ...

[ Upstream commit 9b6eaf1016 ]

Since commit 73ce73c30b ("fbdev: Transfer video= option strings to
caller; clarify ownership") the string returned from fb_get_options()
is expected to be freed by the caller, but the string is not freed in
efifb_probe(). Fix that by freeing the option string after setup.

Fixes: 73ce73c30b ("fbdev: Transfer video= option strings to caller; clarify ownership")
