[PATCH] nullb: free zones when device is power-off

[Edward Adam Davis]

A user powers off the device by writing 0 to `./config/nullb/nullb1/power`
via the nullb configfs interface, and later powers it on by writing 1
to the same file.

When the power-off command is executed, the zones created by the previous
task are not freed before new zones are created upon powering on again;
this results in the memory leak described in [1].

Add an operation to free zones within nullb_device_power_store().
