[ Upstream commit f3c8d90757724982e5f07cd77d315eb64ca145ac ]
Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
NULL pointer dereference check.
tools/perf/util/session.c:1252
dump_read() error: we previously assumed 'evsel' could be null
(see line 1249)
tools/perf/util/session.c
1240 static void dump_read(struct perf_evsel *evsel, union perf_event *event)
1241 {
1242 struct read_event *read_event = &event->read;
1243 u64 read_format;
1244
1245 if (!dump_trace)
1246 return;
1247
1248 printf(": %d %d %s %" PRIu64 "\n", event->read.pid, event->read.tid,
1249 evsel ? perf_evsel__name(evsel) : "FAIL",
1250 event->read.value);
1251
1252 read_format = evsel->attr.read_format;
^^^^^^^
'evsel' could be NULL pointer, for this case this patch directly bails
out without dumping read_event.
