Most of the functionality has a destructor to clean up memory
allocations. probe code needs to follow suit.
e.g, from builtin-record.c:
err = __cmd_record(&record, argc, argv);
perf_evlist__munmap(evsel_list);
perf_evlist__close(evsel_list);
out_free_fd:
perf_evlist__delete_maps(evsel_list);
out_symbol_exit:
symbol__exit();
and __cmd_record ends by cleaning up the session struct.
