I am getting the following compilation error for prog_tests/uprobe_autoattach.c

tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/uprobe_autoattach.c: In function ‘test_uprobe_autoattach’:
./test_progs.h:209:26: error: pointer ‘mem’ may be used after ‘free’ [-Werror=use-after-free]

mem variable is now used in one of the asserts so it shouldn't be freed right
away. Move free(mem) after the assert block.

Fixes: 1717e248014c ("selftests/bpf: Uprobe tests should verify param/return values")

The memory is not used, we only compare the value of the pointer
itself, we don't dereference. So the compiler is being paranoid here.
But while initial version relied on free() to happen before all the
ASSERTs, now we don't, so moving free after asserts is fine.

Looks good, but I rephrased this a bit to avoid confusion. It's false positive given we
only compare the addresses but don't deref mem, which the compiler might not be able to
follow in this case.

Thanks,
