Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: address 2 parse event memory leaks

Using return rather than YYABORT means that the stack isn't cleared up
following a failure. The change to YYABORT means the return value is 1
rather than -1, but the callers just check for a result of 0 (success).
Add missing free of a list when an error occurs in event_pmu.
