[PATCH] perf parse-events: Fix potential null pointer dereference in __add_event()

[zhaoguohan]

From: GuoHan Zhao <zhaoguohan@xxxxxxxxxx>

In the error handling path of __add_event(), if evsel__new_idx() fails
and returns NULL, the subsequent calls to zfree(&evsel->name) and
zfree(&evsel->metric_id) will cause null pointer dereference.

Add a null check before accessing evsel members in the error path.
