From: Riccardo Mancini <rickyman7@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 0967ebffe098157180a0bbd180ac90348c6e07d7 ] ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of: # perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread" The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without dropping the refcount. This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased when a refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.
