efivar: fix oops in efivar_update_sysfs_entries() caused by memory reuse
The loop in efivar_update_sysfs_entries() reuses the same allocation for
entries each time it calls efivar_create_sysfs_entry(entry). This is
wrong because efivar_create_sysfs_entry() expects to keep the memory it
was passed, so the caller may not free it (and may not pass the same
memory in multiple times). This leads to the oops below. Fix by
getting a new allocation each time we go around the loop.
