This patch fixes incorrect calls to sframe_decoder_free in sframe_decode and _bfd_elf_merge_section_sframe. Passing the address of a local variable instead of the actual context address can lead to double frees if sfd_info->stf_ctx isn’t cleared. This patch ensures the correct context address is passed, preventing potential memory corruption.
