[PATCH] trace-cmd: handle NULL comm name in .dat file

[Josef Bacik]

Sometimes the comm field in the trace.dat file can be empty which means that the
event parsing stuff can pass a NULL into pevent_register_comm.  To fix this just
check if we are NULL and generate a bogus comm name for that PID.  This keeps us
from segfaulting.  Thanks,
