From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>
[ Upstream commit 12d572e785b15bc764e956caaa8a4c846fd15694 ]
Fix the memory leakage in debuginfo__find_trace_events() when the probe point is not found in the debuginfo. If there is no probe point found in the debuginfo, debuginfo__find_probes() will NOT return -ENOENT, but 0.
Thus the caller of debuginfo__find_probes() must check the tf.ntevs and release the allocated memory for the array of struct probe_trace_event.
The current code releases the memory only if the debuginfo__find_probes() hits an error but not checks tf.ntevs. In the result, the memory allocated on *tevs are not released if tf.ntevs == 0.
This fixes the memory leakage by checking tf.ntevs == 0 in addition to ret < 0.
