Sandipan Das bdfe345971 perf/x86/amd/uncore: Fix memory leak for events array
When a CPU comes online, the per-CPU NB and LLC uncore contexts are
freed but not the events array within the context structure. This
causes a memory leak as identified by the kmemleak detector.

Fix the problem by freeing the events array before freeing the uncore
context.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
