Re: [PATCH 2/2] perf c2c: Clean up registered formats on c2c_hists__init() failure

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(=
s) to consider:
- [Medium] `__hpp_list__parse()` contains a bug where breaking out of a swi=
tch statement fails to terminate the enclosing for-loop, leading to order-d=
ependent error masking.

perf c2c: Clean up registered formats on c2c_hists__init() failure

When c2c_hists__init() calls hpp_list__parse() and fails partway through,
format structures registered are left on the hpp_list. This adds cleanup
inside c2c_hists__init() itself, so all callers are protected.

[Severity: Medium]
Will this break statement only exit the switch block, rather than the enclo=
sing
for-loop?

In the old PARSE_LIST macro, breaking out of the loop aborted parsing upon =
the
first invalid key.

With a switch statement, it looks like this will continue parsing remaining
tokens, overwriting ret and masking the earlier error if a subsequent token
succeeds.

Does this need to return immediately or use a goto to exit the loop?
