Namhyung reported segfault in perf daemon start command.
It's caused by extra check on argv[0] which is set to NULL by previous
__cmd_start call. Adding missing else to skip the extra check.
Fixes: 92294b906e6c ("perf daemon: Dynamically allocate path to perf")

Thanks for the fix. Now it runs ok.
Before:
$ sudo ./perf test -v daemon
85: daemon operations :

Maybe we need to investigate more why it was ok..
But at least I don't see segfaults anymore
After:
85: daemon operations :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 80752
test daemon list
test daemon reconfig
test daemon stop
test daemon signal
signal 12 sent to session 'test [81022]'
signal 12 sent to session 'test [81022]'
test daemon ping
test daemon lock
test child finished with 0
---- end ----

yea, for some reason parse_options would put NULL into argv[0]
I'll try to check what changed, in any case the fix makes the
condition alligned with the other legs and fixes the segfault

Yep, thanks for checking.
In the meantime, Thomas Richter reported the same problem and
fix. I'll take yours but leave it for the record.

Applied to perf-tools-next, thanks!
