In hist_trigger_elt_data_alloc(), elt_data is freed by
hist_elt_data_free() if kcalloc fails.

static int hist_trigger_elt_data_alloc(struct tracing_map_elt *elt)
{
...
elt_data->field_var_str = kcalloc(n_str, sizeof(char *), GFP_KERNEL);
        if (!elt_data->field_var_str) {
                hist_elt_data_free(elt_data);
                return -EINVAL;
        }
...}

In hist_elt_data_free() the elt_data->field_var_str field should be
checked before dereference.
