[PATCH] perf evsel: Fix memory leaks relating to unit
From: Ian Rogers
Date: Thu Nov 18 2021 - 03:48:11 EST
unit may have a strdup pointer or be to a literal, consequently memory
assocciated with it isn't freed. Change it so the unit is always strdup
and so the memory can be safely freed. Fix related issue in
perf_event__process_event_update for name and own_cpus. Leaks were
spotted by leak sanitizer.
