Revision a37338aad8c4d8676173ead14e881d2ec308155c authored by Riccardo Mancini on 15 July 2021, 16:07:14 UTC, committed by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo on 15 July 2021, 20:27:52 UTC
ASan reports the memory leak of the strings allocated by sort_help() when
running perf report.
This patch changes the returned pointer to char* (instead of const
char*), saves it in a temporary variable, and finally deallocates it at
function exit.
