[PATCH] Fix hists related 'perf test' entries

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

That got broken by d3a72fd8187b ("perf report: Fix indentation of
dynamic entries in hierarchy"), by using the evlist in setup_sorting()
without checking if it is NULL, as done in some 'perf test' entries:

  $ find tools/ -name "*.c" | xargs grep 'setup_sorting(NULL);'
  tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_output.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_cumulate.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_cumulate.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_cumulate.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  tools/perf/tests/hists_cumulate.c:	setup_sorting(NULL);
  $ 

Fix it.

  29: Test cumulation of child hist entries                    : FAILED!
  <SNIP>

After the patch the above failed tests complete successfully.
