[PATCH v1 03/11] perf top: Smatch: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference

[Leo Yan]

Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
NULL pointer dereference check.

  tools/perf/builtin-top.c:109
  perf_top__parse_source() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'he'
  (see line 103)

  tools/perf/builtin-top.c:233
  perf_top__show_details() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'he'
  (see line 228)

tools/perf/builtin-top.c
101 static int perf_top__parse_source(struct perf_top *top, struct hist_entry *he)
102 {
103         struct perf_evsel *evsel = hists_to_evsel(he->hists);
                                                      ^^^^
104         struct symbol *sym;
105         struct annotation *notes;
106         struct map *map;
107         int err = -1;
108
109         if (!he || !he->ms.sym)
110                 return -1;

This patch moves the values assignment after validating pointer 'he'.
