esx: Fix memory leaks in error paths related to transferred ownership

Appending an item to a list transfers ownership of that item to the
list owner. But an error can occur in between item allocation and
appending it to the list. In this case the item has to be freed
explicitly. This was not done in some special cases resulting in
possible memory leaks.
