perf probe: Fix possible double free on error
A double free occurred when get source file path failed. If lr->path
failed to assign a new value, it will be freed as the old path and then
be freed again during line_range__clear(), and causes this:
$ perf probe -L do_execve -k vmlinux
*** Error in `/usr/bin/perf': double free or corruption (fasttop):
0x0000000000a9ac50 ***
======= Backtrace: =========

This patch fix this problem.
