perf top: Fix a segfault when kernel map is restricted.
Perf top raise a warning if a kernel sample is collected but kernel map
is restricted. The warning message needs to dereference al.map->dso...
However, previous perf_event__preprocess_sample() doesn't always
guarantee al.map != NULL, for example, when kernel map is restricted.
This patch validates al.map before dereferencing, avoid the segfault.
Before this patch:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
1
$ perf top -p 120183
perf: Segmentation fault
