Subject[PATCH 4.19 064/120] perf probe: Fix dso->nsinfo refcounting
Date
From: Riccardo Mancini <rickyman7@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit dedeb4be203b382ba7245d13079bc3b0f6d40c65 ]

ASan reports a memory leak of nsinfo during the execution of:

# perf test "31: Lookup mmap thread".

The leak is caused by a refcounted variable being replaced without
dropping the refcount.

This patch makes sure that the refcnt of nsinfo is decreased whenever
a refcounted variable is replaced with a new value.
