Subject: [PATCH 12/19] perf: Introduce perf_free_addr_filters()

Replace _free_event()'s use of perf_addr_filters_splice()s use with an
explicit perf_free_addr_filters() with the explicit propery that it is
able to be called a second time without ill effect.

Most notable, referencing event->pmu must be avoided when there are no
filters left (from eg a previous call).
