[ Upstream commit ceb75476db1617a88cc29b09839acacb69aa076e ]
Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential
NULL pointer dereference check.
tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:641
hist_browser__run() error: we previously assumed 'hbt' could be
null (see line 625)
tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:3088
perf_evsel__hists_browse() error: we previously assumed
'browser->he_selection' could be null (see line 2902)
tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:3272
perf_evsel_menu__run() error: we previously assumed 'hbt' could be
null (see line 3260)
This patch firstly validating the pointers before access them, so can
fix potential NULL pointer dereference.
