In the arm64 version of parse_usdt_arg(), when sscanf returns 2, reg_name
is allocated but not freed. Fix it.

I think all this is more complicated than it has to be. How big  can
register names be? Few characters? Let's get rid of %m[a-z0-9] and
instead use fixed-max-length strings, e.g., %5s. And read register
names into such local char buffers. It will simplify everything
tremendously. Let's use 16-byte buffers and use %15s to match it?
Would that be enough?


The valid register names accepted by calc_pt_regs_off() are x0~x31 and sp, so
16-byte buffer is enough. Since %15s matches all non-space characters, will use
%15[a-z0-9] to match it.

         arg->arg_signed = arg_sz < 0;
