perf_session is too high an abstraction for this, all the uses in this
function are of the kind:

session->header.env.MEMBER

So why not rename it to:

perf_session_env__lookup_binutils_path(struct perf_session_env *env, const char *name)

and then use just:

env->arch, etc?

Please use instead:

char *s;

return asprintf(&s, "%s%s", path_list[idx], name) < 0 ? NULL : s;

Will produce the same result and is more compact.

Please do the test on perf_session_env__lookup_objdump() and handle
errors, i.e. what happens if that strdup/asprintf fails?

Ok, that is unlikely, but not impossible, but what happens if we don't
find the right objdump? Shouldn't we use ui__error("please install
required objdump" (or a better, more detailed message)?
