He Zhe f8ff18be1f tools lib traceevent: Take care of return value of asprintf
According to the API, if memory allocation wasn't possible, or some
other error occurs, asprintf will return -1, and the contents of strp
below are undefined.

  int asprintf(char **strp, const char *fmt, ...);

This patch takes care of return value of asprintf to make it less error
prone and prevent the following build warning.

  ignoring return value of ‘asprintf’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]

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 Restructured Text 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.
