perf bpf: Defer freeing string after possible strlen() on it
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 31ded15 upstream.

This was detected by the gcc in Fedora Rawhide's gcc:

  50    11.01 fedora:rawhide                : FAIL gcc version 12.0.1 20220205 (Red Hat 12.0.1-0) (GCC)
        inlined from 'bpf__config_obj' at util/bpf-loader.c:1242:9:
    util/bpf-loader.c:1225:34: error: pointer 'map_opt' may be used after 'free' [-Werror=use-after-free]
     1225 |                 *key_scan_pos += strlen(map_opt);
          |                                  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    util/bpf-loader.c:1223:9: note: call to 'free' here
     1223 |         free(map_name);
          |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

So do the calculations on the pointer before freeing it.
