Subject: tracing: Fix memory leak of iter->temp when reading trace_pipe

From: Zheng Yejian <zhengyejian1@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d5a821896360cc8b93a15bd888fabc858c038dc0 upstream.

kmemleak reports:
  unreferenced object 0xffff88814d14e200 (size 256):

      [<ffffffff9d2000aa>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8

when reading file 'trace_pipe', 'iter->temp' is allocated or relocated
in trace_find_next_entry() but not freed before 'trace_pipe' is closed.

To fix it, free 'iter->temp' in tracing_release_pipe().
