Subject: [PATCH 18/29] perf probe: Reset args and nargs for probe_trace_event when failure
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2015 10:09:19 +0000

When failure occures in add_probe_trace_event(), args in
probe_trace_event is incomplete. Since information in it may be used
in further, this patch frees the allocated memory and set it to NULL
to avoid dangling pointer.
