Subject[PATCH v2] perf ksymbol: fix memory leak: decrease refcount of map and dso
Date
ASan reported a memory leak of BPF-related ksymbols
map and dso. The leak is caused by refount never
reaching 0, due to missing __put calls in the function
machine__process_ksymbol_register.
Once the dso is inserted in the map, dso__put should be
called (map__new2 increases the refcount to 2).
The same thing applies for the map when it's inserted
into maps (maps__insert increases the refcount to 2).

$ sudo ./perf record -- sleep 5
