Running the "perf script task-analyzer tests" with address sanitizer
showed a double free:
```

```
The buf_size if always set to phdr->p_filesz, but that may be 0
causing a free and realloc to return NULL. This is treated in
filename__read_build_id like a failure and the buffer is freed again.
To avoid this problem only grow buf, meaning the buf_size will never
be 0. This also reduces the number of memory (re)allocations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
