Re: [PATCH] perf pmus: Fixes always false when compare duplicates aliases

In the previous loop, all the members in the aliases[j-1] have been freed
and set to NULL. But in this loop, the function pmu_alias_is_duplicate()
compares the aliases[j] with the aliases[j-1] that has already been
disposed, so the function will always return false and duplicate aliases
will never be discarded.

If we find duplicate aliases, it skips the zfree aliases[j], which is
accompanied by a memory leak.

Applied to perf-tools-next, thanks!
