Perf top raise a warning if a kernel sample is collected but kernel map
is restricted. The warning message needs to dereference al.map->dso...
However, previous perf_event__preprocess_sample() doesn't always
guarantee al.map != NULL, for example, when kernel map is restricted.
This patch validates al.map before dereferencing, avoid the segfault.

Thanks for the detailed report, I reproduced the problem here and I am
applying the patch.

perf top: Fix a segfault when kernel map is restricted.
Perf top raise a warning if a kernel sample is collected but kernel map
is restricted. The warning message needs to dereference al.map->dso...
However, previous perf_event__preprocess_sample() doesn't always
guarantee al.map != NULL, for example, when kernel map is restricted.
This patch validates al.map before dereferencing, avoid the segfault.
