IFS requires tests to be authenticated once for each CPU socket on a system. scan_chunks_sanity_check() was dynamically allocating memory to store the state of whether tests have been authenticated on each socket for every load operation. Move the memory allocation to init path and store the pointer in ifs_data struct. Also rearrange the adjacent error checking in init for a more simplified and natural flow.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
