Avnish Chouhan e37d021583 kern/ieee1275/openfw: Add a check for invalid partition number
The grub_strtoul() may fail in several scenarios like invalid input,
overflow, etc. Lack of proper check may lead to unexpected failures
in the code further.

Avnish Chouhan 02cae1a357 disk/ieee1275/ofdisk: Fix memory leaks
In case of an overflow "p" and "p->grub_devpath" will not be freed.
Fix both issues.

Avnish Chouhan 09c512b8fa efiemu/loadcore: Add grub_calloc() failure check
Add a failure check after grub_calloc() call. If grub_calloc()
fails, e.g., due to memory allocation failure, it returns NULL.
Then using grub_efiemu_elfsyms, which will be NULL, later will
result in a NULL pointer dereference.

Avnish Chouhan cb811bdf05 normal/cmdline: Add grub_calloc() failure check and fix hist_lines state loss
If grub_calloc() fails hist_lines becomes NULL. It means we loose the
reference to the previously allocated hist_lines and leak memory. With
this change on failure hist_lines still points to the old memory. So,
no leak, no state corruption.

Avnish Chouhan d4f476f08e lib/legacy_parse: Add missing grub_malloc() failure check
This patch adds a NULL check after grub_malloc() call. Missing a failure
check after calling grub_malloc() can lead to undefined behavior. If the
allocation fails and returns NULL subsequent dereferencing or writing to
the pointer will likely result in a runtime error such as a segmentation
fault.

Avnish Chouhan 5f0ffd7f57 term/ieee1275/serial: Fix memory leak
The grub_zalloc() allocates memory for port. If the allocation for
port->name fails the function returns NULL without freeing the
previously allocated port memory. This results in a memory leak.
To avoid this we must free port before return.

Avnish Chouhan fee6081ec7 kern/ieee1275/init: Increase MIN_RMA size for CAS negotiation on PowerPC machines
Change RMA size from 512 MB to 768 MB which will result in more memory
at boot time for PowerPC. When vTPM, Secure Boot or FADump are enabled
on PowerPC the 512 MB RMA memory is not sufficient for boot. With this
512 MB RMA, GRUB runs out of memory and fails to boot the machine.
Sometimes even usage of CDROM requires more memory for installation and
along with the options mentioned above exhausts the boot memory which
results in boot failures. Increasing the RMA size will resolves multiple
out of memory issues observed on PowerPC machines.
