    perf trace: Read_tracing_data should die() another day · e2561368

    It better propagate errors, also if we do a simple:
    
    [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf record -R -a -f sleep 3s ;
    perf trace [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.182 MB perf.data (~7972 samples) ]
    Fatal: not an trace data file
    [root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
    
    That is what is expected, right? I.e. as we didn't specify any
    tracepoint event via -e, it should gracefully bail out and not
    SEGFAULT.
