We free the initrd memory for all successful or error cases except for the case where opening /initrd.image fails, which looks like an oversight.
This also changes the behaviour when CONFIG_INITRAMFS_FORCE is enabled - specifically it means that the initrd is freed (previously it was ignored and never freed). But that seems like reasonable behaviour and the previous behaviour looks like another oversight. FWIW: Reviewed-by: Steven Price <steven.price@arm.com>
