Subject: [PATCH 5.10 034/167] perf map: Fix dso->nsinfo refcounting

From: Riccardo Mancini <rickyman7@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 2d6b74baa7147251c30a46c4996e8cc224aa2dc5 ]

ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of

  # perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread"

The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without
dropping the refcount.

This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased whenever a
refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.
