Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 12/12] perf hist: Fix memory leak of a perf_hpp_fmt

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit 0ca1f534a776cc7d42f2c33da4732b74ec2790cd ]

perf_hpp__column_unregister() removes an entry from a list but doesn't
free the memory causing a memory leak spotted by leak sanitizer.

Add the free while at the same time reducing the scope of the function
to static.
