Subject[PATCH 02/25] perf stat: Fix use-after-freed pointer detected by the smatch tool
Date
From: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org>

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the use-after-freed
pointer.

tools/perf/builtin-stat.c:1353
add_default_attributes() warn: passing freed memory 'str'.

The pointer 'str' has been freed but later it is still passed into the
function parse_events_print_error(). This patch fixes this
use-after-freed issue.
