Static analysis reports this problem
trusted-keys/trusted_tpm1.c:496:10: warning: Potential memory leak

I see this patch also submitted by Colin (Cc'd) in Message-Id:

<20210430113724.110746-1-colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Let's use Colin's.

To my eyes, the commit message seems a bit better over there.
