- Check for reader catching up in ring_buffer_map_get_reader()
If the reader catches up to the writer in the memory mapped ring buffer
then calling rb_get_reader_page() will return NULL as there's no
pages left. But this isn't checked for before calling rb_get_reader_page()
and the return of NULL causes a warning.
If it is detected that the reader caught up to the writer, then simply
exit the routine.
- Fix memory leak in histogram create_field_var()
The couple of the error paths in create_field_var() did not properly clean
up what was allocated. Make sure everything is freed properly on error.
- Fix help message of tools latency_collector
The help message incorrectly stated that "-t" was the same as "--threads"
whereas "--threads" is actually represented by "-e".
