Subject: [PATCH perf/core 06/13] perf: Fix machine__destroy_kernel_maps to
 put vmlinux_maps

Fix machine__destroy_kernel_maps() to put vmlinux_maps before
filling it with NULL.

map__new2() returns map with refcnt = 1, and also
map_groups__insert gets it again in__machine__create_kernel_maps().

machine__destroy_kernel_maps() calls map_groups__remove() to
decrement the refcnt, but before decrement it again (corresponding
to map__new2), it makes vmlinux_maps[type] = NULL. And this may
cause a refcnt leak.
