Subject: [PATCH 4.4 21/79] tools lib traceevent: Do not free tep->cmdlines in add_new_comm() on failure

From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>

[ Upstream commit e0d2615856b2046c2e8d5bfd6933f37f69703b0b ]

If the re-allocation of tep->cmdlines succeeds, then the previous
allocation of tep->cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in
add_new_comm(), we must not free cmdlines, and also should assign
tep->cmdlines to the new allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the
tep->cmdlines will be pointing to garbage.

Fixes: a6d2a61ac653a ("tools lib traceevent: Remove some die() calls")
