Subject: [PATCH 4.19 070/115] tracing: Avoid memory leak in process_system_preds()

From: Keita Suzuki <keitasuzuki.park@...ab.ics.keio.ac.jp>

commit 79e65c27f09683fbb50c33acab395d0ddf5302d2 upstream.

When failing in the allocation of filter_item, process_system_preds()
goes to fail_mem, where the allocated filter is freed.

However, this leads to memory leak of filter->filter_string and
filter->prog, which is allocated before and in process_preds().
This bug has been detected by kmemleak as well.

Fix this by changing kfree to __free_fiter.
