[PATCH] perf tools: Fix crash on buildid-list with namespace

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Tue Oct 17 2017 - 09:31:23 EST


Thomas reported that perf buildid-list gets a segfault due to NULL
pointer when he ran it on a data with namespace events. It was because
the buildid_id__mark_dso_hit_ops lacks the namespace event handler and
perf_too__fill_default() didn't set it.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Fix it by adding a stub event handler for namespace event.
