[PATCH 1/2] perf hists browser: Fix seg fault when annotate null symbol

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com>

In hists browser, press hotkey 'a' to annotate current symbol.

Now it causes segment fault if 'a' is pressed on a null symbol.

Here are 2 small bugs:
- In perf_evsel__hists_browse, the condition check after 'a' is pressed
  is not correct, we should check ->sym instead of ->map.
- In symbol__tui_annotate we must check whether sym is NULL or not
  before getting annotation structure.

This patch fixes above 2 small bugs.

[PATCH 2/2] perf evsel: Fix use of inherit

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf stat doesn't mmap and its perfectly fine for it to use task-bound
counters with inheritance.

So set the attr.inherit on the caller and leave the syscall itself to
validate it.

When the mmap fails perf_evlist__mmap will just emit a warning if this
is the failure reason.
