[PATCH 1/2] tools lib traceevent: Do not free tep->cmdlines in add_new_comm() on failure

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If the re-allocation of tep->cmdlines succeeds, then the previous allocation
of tep->cmdlines will be freed. If we later fail in add_new_comm(), we must
not free cmdlines, and also should assign tep->cmdlines to the new
allocation. Otherwise when freeing tep, the tep->cmdlines will be pointing
to garbage.
