From: Colin Ian King <colin.k...@canonical.com>
__perf_evsel__read_on_cpu() only bails out with -ENOMEM if
evsel->counts is NULL and perf_evsel__alloc_counts() has returned
an error. If perf_evsel__alloc_counts() does not return an error
we get an NULL pointer deference on evsel->counts->cpu[cpu]
if evsel->counts is NULL.
