Subject: [PATCH] tracing/filters: clean up filter_add_subsystem_pred()

This patch cleans up filter_add_subsystem_pred():

- searches for the field before creating a copy of the pred
- fixes memory leak in the case a predicate isn't applied
- if -ENOMEM, makes sure there's no longer a reference to the pred so
the caller can free the half-finished filter
- changes the confusing i == MAX_FILTER_PRED - 1 comparison previously
remarked upon

This affects only per-subsystem event filtering.
