perf probe: Fix to handle errors in line_range searching
As Namhyung reported(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/1/89), current perf-probe -L option doesn't handle errors in line-range searching correctly. It causes a SEGV if an error occured in the line-range searching. ---- $ perf probe -x ./perf -v -L map__load Open Debuginfo file: /home/namhyung/project/linux/tools/perf/perf fname: util/map.c, lineno:153 New line range: 153 to 2147483647 path: (null) Segmentation fault (core dumped) ---- This is because line_range_inline_cb() ignores errors from find_line_range_by_line() which means that lr->path is already freed on the error path in find_line_range_by_line(). As a result, get_real_path() accesses the lr->path and it causes a NULL pointer exception. This fixes line_range_inline_cb() to handle the error correctly, and report it to the caller. Anyway, this just fixes a possible SEGV bug, Namhyung's patch is also required.
