Commit 59a1d6d3ea1e introduced Shim's LoadImage protocol and unloads the image after loading it (for verification purposes) regardless of the returned status. The protocol API implies this is the correct behaviour but we should add a check to protect against the unlikely case this frees any memory in use.
