Subject: [RHEL7.5 PATCH 006/169] examine: tidy up some code.

Michael Shigorin reports that the 'lcc' compiler isn't able
to deduce that 'st' must be initialized in

		if (c->SparcAdjust)
			st->ss->update_super(st, NULL, "sparc2.2",

just because the only times it isn't initialised, 'err' is set non-zero.

This results in a 'possibly uninitialised' warning.
While there is no bug in the code, this does suggest that maybe
the code could be made more obviously correct.

So this patch:
 1/ moves the "err" variable inside the for loop, so an error in
    one device doesn't stop the other devices from being processed
 2/ calls 'continue' early if the device cannot be opened, so that
    a level of indent can be removed, and so that it is clear that
    'st' is always initialised before being used
 3/ frees 'st' if an error occured in load_super or load_container.
