If this fails or any previous error that will prevent the event log table + logs
to be allocated, shouldn't tpm_read_log_efi() be notified somehow? Since AFAICT
it will still try to access them even if the EFI allocate_pool did not succeed.

The functions efi_retrieve_tpm2_eventlog_1_2() and tpm_read_log_efi() are using
log_tbl as variable name, so I would use it here too for consistency.

Same question than before, if this fails then the table + logs memory won't be
reserved but tpm_read_log_efi() will still try to access it. I'm not sure what
is the correct way to notify though, maybe setting efi.tpm_log to 0 and then in
tpm_read_log_efi() check efi.tpm_log for 0 or EFI_INVALID_TABLE_ADDR instead?
