[PATCH v3 1/3] perf tools: Fix memory leak in cmd_kvm()

[Michalis Niarchos via B4 Relay <devnull+michael.niarchos.gmail.com@kernel.org>]

From: Michalis Niarchos <michael.niarchos@gmail.com>

filename may get allocated by get_filename_for_perf_kvm(), but is
never freed. Use string literals to remove the need for freeing.
