[PATCH] perf tools: Fix segfault in 'perf top'

[Wang Nan]

'perf top' segfaults with following operation:

 # perf top -e page-faults -p 15173 # 15173 never generate page-fault

Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key:

 # ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400
 perf: Segmentation fault
 -------- backtrace --------
 ./perf[0x535428]
 /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f0dd360745f]
 ./perf[0x531d46]
 ./perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x5340d6]

 /lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x6c)[0x7f0dd36b90dc]

The bug reside in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above circumstance
browser->selection can be NULL, but code after skip_annotation doesn't consider
it.

This patch fix it by checing browser->selection before fetching
browser->selection->map and browser->selection->sym.
