firmware, memmap: fix firmware_map_entry leak
When hot removing memory, a firmware_map_entry which has memory range of
the memory is released by release_firmware_map_entry(). If the entry is
allocated by bootmem, release_firmware_map_entry() adds the entry to
map_entires_bootmem list when firmware_map_find_entry() finds the entry
from map_entries list. But firmware_map_find_entry never find the entry
sicne map_entires list does not have the entry. So the entry just
leaks.
Here are steps of leaking firmware_map_entry:
firmware_map_remove()
-> firmware_map_find_entry()
Find released entry from map_entries list
-> firmware_map_remove_entry()
Delete the entry from map_entries list
-> remove_sysfs_fw_map_entry()
...
-> release_firmware_map_entry()
-> firmware_map_find_entry()
Find the entry from map_entries list but the entry has been
deleted from map_entries list. So the entry is not added
to map_entries_bootmem. Thus the entry leaks
release_firmware_map_entry() should not call firmware_map_find_entry()
since releaed entry has been deleted from map_entries list. So the
patch delete firmware_map_find_entry() from releae_firmware_map_entry()
