lib/list_sort: test: improve errors handling
The 'lib_sort()' test does not free memory if it fails, and it makes the kernel panic if it cannot allocate memory. This patch fixes the problem. This patch also changes several small things: o use 'list_add()' helper instead of adding manually o introduce temporary 'el1' variable to avoid ugly and unreadalbe "if" statement o make 'head' to be stack variable instead of 'kmalloc()'ed, which simplifies code a bit Overall, this patch is of clean-up type.
