[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 18/19] perf hist: Fix memory leak of a perf_hpp_fmt

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Thu Nov 25 2021 - 21:42:17 EST


From: Ian Rogers <irogers@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 0ca1f534a776cc7d42f2c33da4732b74ec2790cd ]

perf_hpp__column_unregister() removes an entry from a list but doesn't
free the memory causing a memory leak spotted by leak sanitizer.

Add the free while at the same time reducing the scope of the function
to static.
