[PATCH 14/20] perf annotate: Fix a bug of division by zero when calculating percent

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Taeung Song <treeze.taeung@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently perf-annotate with --print-line can print
-nan(0x8000000000000) because of division by zero when calculating
percent. The division by zero happens when a sum of samples is zero in
symbol__get_source_line(), so fix it.

For example:

After running 'perf record' like below,

$ perf record -e "{cycles,page-faults,branch-misses}" ./a.out

Before:

$ perf annotate --stdio -l

Sorted summary for file /home/taeung/workspace/a.out

15.88 -nan 1.41 a.c:37
5.67 -nan 0.00 a.c:39
1.13 -nan 35.21 a.c:26
0.95 -nan 0.00 a.c:44
0.57 -nan 0.00 a.c:32
Percent | Source code & Disassembly of a.out for cycles (529 samples)

a.c:26 0.00 -nan 9.86 : 40081d: mov %rsi,-0x30(%rbp)

...

However, if a sum of samples is zero (e.g. 'page-faults'),
skip calculating percent.

After:

$ perf annotate --stdio -l
