Some mutterings below, but I couldn't come up with a better code
style, so

A little ugly though less so than original code with that implicit assumption
of EFI_SUCCCESS == 0 that is avoided in most the rest of this code.
__free magic would be complex given the need to provide the size and hence
we are down to a helper.  Ok. Maybe just not worth the effort given how small
the code is.
