Running this as a normal user may not be the best thing to do, but I'm
pretty sure the TUI c2c report shouldn't sigsegv:
-----
$ tools/perf/perf c2c record -e ldlat-loads lat_mem_rd 16 4096
WARNING: Kernel address maps (/proc/{kallsyms,modules}) are restricted,
check /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict.
Samples in kernel functions may not be resolved if a suitable vmlinux
file is not found in the buildid cache or in the vmlinux path.
Samples in kernel modules won't be resolved at all.
If some relocation was applied (e.g. kexec) symbols may be misresolved
even with a suitable vmlinux or kallsyms file.
Couldn't record kernel reference relocation symbol
Symbol resolution may be skewed if relocation was used (e.g. kexec).
Check /proc/kallsyms permission or run as root.

All the above work fine when run under sudo.
