Subject: [PATCH v3 4.19 1/2] test_firmware: fix a memory leak with reqs buffer

[ commit be37bed754ed90b2655382f93f9724b3c1aae847 upstream ]

Dan Carpenter spotted that test_fw_config->reqs will be leaked if
trigger_batched_requests_store() is called two or more times.
The same appears with trigger_batched_requests_async_store().

This bug wasn't triggered by the tests, but observed by Dan's visual
inspection of the code.

The recommended workaround was to return -EBUSY if test_fw_config->reqs
is already allocated.
