From: Jackie Liu <liuyun01@kylinos.cn>
dc_construct_ctx() allocates a logger and stores an alias in dc->dml.logger
before allocating the performance trace object. If dc_perf_trace_create()
fails, the function frees dc_ctx without releasing the logger. Since
dc->ctx is assigned only after the trace allocation succeeds,
dc_destruct() cannot reclaim the logger on this error path.
Free the logger before discarding dc_ctx and clear dc->dml.logger to avoid
leaving a dangling alias after the failed construction.
