Still investigating, but the attached patch is needed to handle such
failure cases:

[root@zoo ~]# perf test 21
21: Test object code reading                               : FAILED!
[root@zoo ~]# perf test -v 21
21: Test object code reading                               :
--- start ---
Looking at the vmlinux_path (6 entries long)
symsrc__init: cannot get elf header.
Using /lib/modules/3.11.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux for symbols
Parsing event 'cycles'
Parsing event 'cycles:u'
perf_evlist__open failed
---- end ----
Test object code reading: FAILED!
[root@zoo ~]#
