Subject: [PATCH 4.14 60/75] perf tools: Fix leaking rec_argv in error cases

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Kepplinger <martink@...teo.de>


[ Upstream commit c896f85a7c15ab9d040ffac8b8003e47996602a2 ]

Let's free the allocated rec_argv in case we return early, in order to
avoid leaking memory.

This adds free() at a few very similar places across the tree where it
was missing.
