[PATCH 48/49] perf tools: Introduce zfree

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Fri Dec 27 2013 - 15:48:58 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

For the frequent idiom of:

free(ptr);
ptr = NULL;

Make it expect a pointer to the pointer being freed, so that it becomes
clear at first sight that the variable being freed is being modified.
