[PATCH] state: backend_raw: fix ignoring unpack failures

This is required to inform the state framework that the state variable
set have changed and we need to write the new variable set. Without this
fix the new variable set is never written since the state never sets
dirty=1 and so state_save() will return early without saving the new
variable set.

I keeped the continue instead of break out early so the user gets
informed which variables do not fit.

  Marco
