[PATCH] perf metric: Fix memory leaks.

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Fri Nov 05 2021 - 12:47:05 EST


Certain error paths may leak memory as caught by address sanitizer.
Ensure this is cleaned up to make sure address/leak sanitizer is happy.

Fixes: 5ecd5a0c7d1c ("perf metrics: Modify setup and deduplication")
