Ian Rogers 918b71d6f1 perf probe: Fix libdw memory leak
[ Upstream commit 4585038b8e186252141ef86e9f0d8e97f11dce8d ]

Add missing dwarf_cfi_end to free memory associated with probe_finder
cfi_eh which is allocated and owned via a call to
dwarf_getcfi_elf. Confusingly cfi_dbg shouldn't be freed as its memory
is owned by the passed in debuginfo struct. Add comments to highlight
this.

This addresses leak sanitizer issues seen in:
tools/perf/tests/shell/test_uprobe_from_different_cu.sh

Fixes: 270bde1e76 ("perf probe: Search both .eh_frame and .debug_frame sections for probe location")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
