[ Upstream commit a37338aad8c4d8676173ead14e881d2ec308155c ]
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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
