Silently keeping entries in the list if the address matches, but the
page count doesn't is a bad idea, and can lead to double frees.

grub_efi_free_pages() have already freed parts of this block by this
point, and thus keeping the whole block in the list and freeing it again
at exit can lead to double frees.
