perf ordered_events: Fix crash in ordered_events__free

Song Liu reported crash in 'perf record':

  > #0  0x0000000000500055 in ordered_events(float, long double,...)(...) ()
  > #1  0x0000000000500196 in ordered_events.reinit ()
  > #2  0x00000000004fe413 in perf_session.process_events ()
  > #3  0x0000000000440431 in cmd_record ()
  > #4  0x00000000004a439f in run_builtin ()
  > #5  0x000000000042b3e5 in main ()"

This can happen when we get out of buffers during event processing.

The subsequent ordered_events__free() call assumes oe->buffer != NULL
and crashes. Add a check to prevent that.
