From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit b0215e2d6a18d8331b2d4a8b38ccf3eff783edb1 upstream. If the re-allocation of tep->cmdlines succeeds, then the previous allocation of tep->cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in add_new_comm(), we must not free cmdlines, and also should assign tep->cmdlines to the new allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the tep->cmdlines will be pointing to garbage.
