Philippe Duplessis-Guindon dba57fe088 tools lib traceevent: Fix memory leak in process_dynamic_array_len
[ Upstream commit e24c6447cc ]

I compiled with AddressSanitizer and I had these memory leaks while I
was using the tep_parse_format function:

    Direct leak of 28 byte(s) in 4 object(s) allocated from:

The token variable in the process_dynamic_array_len function is
allocated in the read_expect_type function, but is not freed before
calling the read_token function.

Free the token variable before calling read_token in order to plug the
leak.

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.
