I think it's better we dont change the functionality,
just factor the code..

AFAICS they print out high(er) level errors, like for sythesizing

pr_err("Couldn't record guest kernel [%d]'s reference"
" relocation symbol.\n", machine->pid);
I think we want that write failure message as well

added perf_data_file__write interface.
No functional change intended.
