From: root <r...@core097011.sqa.cm4> In function filename__read_debuglink(), while the ELF file is opend and mmapped in elf_begin(), but if this file is considered to not be usable during the following code, we will goto the close(fd) directly. The elf_end() is skipped. So, the mmaped ELF file cannot be munmapped. The memory areas are mmapped is exist during the life of perf. This is a memory leak. This patch fixed this bug. Thanks.
