The commit message needs to say what the problem is that the patch is
fixing. Here is a better commit message:

[PATCH bpf-next v3 2/2] libbpf: Fix the possible memory leak on error

If the strdup() fails then we need to call bpf_object__close(obj) to
avoid a resource leak.

Add a Fixes tag as well.
