[for-linus][PATCH 3/5] tracing: Have error path in predicate_parse() free its allocated memory

From: Steven Rostedt

From: Navid Emamdoost <navid.emamdoost@xxxxxxxxx>

In predicate_parse, there is an error path that is not going to
out_free instead it returns directly which leads to a memory leak.
