[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.20 04/72] perf ordered_events: Fix crash in ordered_events__free

[ Upstream commit 99d86c8b88393e29cf07c020585f2c8afbcdd97d ]

Song Liu reported crash in 'perf record':

> #0 0x0000000000500055 in ordered_events(float, long double,...)(...) ()
> #1 0x0000000000500196 in ordered_events.reinit ()
> #2 0x00000000004fe413 in perf_session.process_events ()
> #3 0x0000000000440431 in cmd_record ()
> #4 0x00000000004a439f in run_builtin ()
> #5 0x000000000042b3e5 in main ()"

This can happen when we get out of buffers during event processing.

The subsequent ordered_events__free() call assumes oe->buffer != NULL
and crashes. Add a check to prevent that.
