CVE-2022-49800

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tracing: Fix memory leak in testgensynthcmd() and testemptysynthevent()

testgensynthcmd() only free buf in fail path, hence buf will leak when there is no failure. Add kfree(buf) to prevent the memleak. The same reason and solution in testemptysynthevent().
