x86/kexec: Avoid double free_page() upon do_kexec_load() failure

Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/kexec: avoid double free_page() upon do_kexec_load() failure.

syzbot is reporting crashes after memory allocation failure inside
do_kexec_load() [1]. This is because free_transition_pgtable() is called
by both init_transition_pgtable() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside init_transition_pgtable().

Regarding 32bit code, machine_kexec_free_page_tables() is called by both
machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables() and machine_kexec_cleanup() when memory
allocation failed inside machine_kexec_alloc_page_tables().

Fix this by leaving the error handling to machine_kexec_cleanup()
(and optionally setting NULL after free_page()).

Fixes: f5deb796 ("x86: kexec: Use one page table in x86_64 machine_kexec")
Fixes: 92be3d6b ("kexec/i386: allocate page table pages dynamically")
