When perf.data file be abtained by using 'perf record -b', perf report
should use branch stack mode to generate output. But this function is
broken by improper comparison between boolean and constant -1.

before this patch:
$perf report -b -i perf.data
Samples: 16  of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 3171896
Overhead  Command  Shared Object      Symbol
  13.59%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] prio_tree_remove
  13.16%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] change_pte_range
  12.09%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] page_fault
  12.02%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] zap_pte_range
...

after this patch:
$perf report -b -i perf.data
Samples: 256  of event 'cycles', Event count (approx.): 256
Overhead  Command  Source Shared Object  Source Symbol                               Target Shared Object  Target Symbol
   9.38%  ls       [unknown]             [k] 0000000000000000                        [unknown]             [k] 0000000000000000
   6.25%  ls       libc-2.19.so          [.] _dl_addr                                libc-2.19.so          [.] _dl_addr
   6.25%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] zap_pte_range                           [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] zap_pte_range
   6.25%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] change_pte_range                        [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] change_pte_range
   0.39%  ls       [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] prio_tree_remove                        [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] prio_tree_remove
