There is segmentation fault when running perf trace. For example,
[root@jouet e]# perf trace -e *chdir -o /tmp/bla perf report
--ignore-vmlinux -i ../perf.data

The perf_mmap__consume() could unmap the mmap. It needs to check the
refcnt in perf_mmap__read_done().

Seems insuficient:

[root@jouet ~]# perf trace -e *chdir -o /tmp/bla perf report --ignore-vmlinux
perf: Segmentation fault

I'm adding this as a separate patch, with yours and this one, the
segfault is gone.


Thanks. Yes, we should check the mmap before using it for all new interfaces.

Thanks,
Kan
