perf probe: Fix a segfault bug in debuginfo_cache
perf probe --list will get a segfault if the first kprobe event is on a
module and the second or latter one is on the kernel.
e.g.
----
# ./perf probe -q -m pcspkr pcspkr_event
# ./perf probe -q vfs_read
# ./perf probe -l
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
----
This is because the debuginfo_cache fails to handle NULL module name,
which causes segfault on strcmp. (Note that strcmp("something", NULL)
always causes segfault)
To fix this debuginfo_cache__open always translates the NULL module name
to "kernel" (this is correct, because NULL module name means opening the
debuginfo for the kernel)
----
# ./perf probe -l
probe:pcspkr_event (on pcspkr_event@drivers/input/misc/pcspkr.c
in pcspkr)
probe:vfs_read (on vfs_read@ksrc/linux-3/fs/read_write.c)
