[PATCH 5.15 85/93] tracing: Free error logs of tracing instances

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3357c6e429643231e60447b52ffbb7ac895aca22 upstream.

When a tracing instance is removed, the error messages that hold errors
that occurred in the instance needs to be freed. The following reports a
memory leak:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # mkdir instances/foo
 # echo 'hist:keys=x' > instances/foo/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 # cat instances/foo/error_log
 [  117.404795] hist:sched:sched_switch: error: Couldn't find field
   Command: hist:keys=x
                      ^
 # rmdir instances/foo

Then check for memory leaks:

 # echo scan > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

The problem is that the error log needs to be freed when the instance is
removed.
