Brendan King 490c30fd55 drm/imagination: fix firmware memory leaks 
commit a5b230e7f3 upstream.

Free the memory used to hold the results of firmware image processing
when the module is unloaded.

Fix the related issue of the same memory being leaked if processing
of the firmware image fails during module load.

Ensure all firmware GEM objects are destroyed if firmware image
processing fails.

Fixes memory leaks on powervr module unload detected by Kmemleak:

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
