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.

I.e. do the same as when NO_LIBELF is explicitely passed in the 'make'
command line, fixing this:
Auto-detecting system features:
... dwarf: [ OFF ]

... gtk2: [ OFF ]
... libaudit: [ OFF ]

... libelf: [ OFF ]

Instead of bailing out as soon as we find a filter that applies, go on
checking all of them so that we can zoom in/out filters.
We also need to make sure we only update al->filtered after
thread__find_addr_map(), because there is where al->filtered gets
initialized to zero.
This will increase the cost of processing when all we don't need this
toggling, but will provide flexibility for the TUI and GTK+ interfaces,
that will incur in creating the hist_entries just once.

When trying to capture perf data on a system running spejbb2013, perf
hung for about 15 minutes. This is because it took that long to gather
about 10,000 thread maps and process them.
I don't think a user wants to wait that long.
Instead, recognize that thread maps are roughly equivalent to pid maps
and just quickly copy those instead.
To do this, I synthesize 'fork' events, this eventually calls
thread__fork() and copies the maps over.
The overhead goes from 15 minutes down to about a few seconds.

V2: based on Jiri's comments, moved malloc up a level
and made sure the memory was freed
