Hi Arnaldo, 

Here is the 3rd version of the strbuf update. I've fixed it
according to your suggestion :)

 - [1/8] Use realloc instead of malloc/memcpy/free (Thanks Arnaldo!)
 - [2/8] Cleanup code path according to Arnaldo's review.
 - [5/8] Avoid using STRBUF_INIT and return error directly before
        initalizing strbuf.

This patch series does refactoring strbuf and xrealloc related code
to remove xrealloc since it can call die() to exit immediately when
it hits any error. Instead of that, it should return error code to
the caller so that the caller can handle its error.

Thus, at first, this changes the strbuf APIs to return error code
instead of die() immediately. And then changing API callers according
to the following rules.
 - Check the return value of strbuf APIs and handle errors and,
   - If the caller returns an error code (errno), it returns
     the return value of strbuf APIs.
   - If the caller just return -1 or NULl in error case, it also
     returns -1 or NULL in case of strbuf error. 
   - If the caller can call die() directly, it also call die()
     in case of strbuf error.
 - Error checking patches are splitted for each subcommand, since
   it will help review.

This also removes xrealloc and ALLOC_GROW from libperf, so that no
one use it anymore.

Thank you,

---
