Upon further investigation, it seems that
commit 747a9b0a08ae ("Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip")
breaks perf tool.
__list_del(): tools/include/linux/list.h does not check null pointer dereference
I don't have a Boradwell system, unable to reproduce the fault.
Could you please give the output of gdb's bt command?
We should try to fix the inappropriate list operation.
Thank you.
