Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Fix machine object to drop the reference to the map object after it
inserted it into machine->kmaps.

  ----

This pattern clearly shows that the refcnt of the map is acquired twice
by map__new2 and maps__insert but released onlu once at
map_groups__exit, when we purge its maps rbtree.

Since maps__insert already reference counted the map, we have to drop
the constructor (map__new2) reference count right after inserting it.

These happened in machine__findnew_module_map, as below.

  ----
  # eu-addr2line -e ./perf -f 0x4b8aaf
  machine__findnew_module_map inlined at util/machine.c:1046
  in machine__create_module
  util/machine.c:582
  # eu-addr2line -e ./perf -f 0x4b8acb
  map_groups__insert inlined at util/machine.c:585
  in machine__create_module
  util/map.h:208
  ----

(note that both are at util/machine.c:58X which is
 machine__findnew_module_map)
