#1284967 — [PATCH v3 1/3] perf hists browser: Fix segfault if use symbol filter in cmdline

Subject[PATCH v3 1/3] perf hists browser: Fix segfault if use symbol filter in cmdline
Message-ID<qCTSx-6PC-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
If feed perf a symbol filter in cmdline and the result is empty,
pressing 'Enter' in the hist browser causes crash:

 # ./perf report perf.data   <-- Common mistake for beginners

Then press 'Enter':

 perf: Segmentation fault
 -------- backtrace --------
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x53e578]
 /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f76bafe045f]
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x539dd4]
 /home/wangnan/perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x53d216]

 /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7f76bafccbd4]
 /home/wangnan/perf[0x4330d4]

This is because 'perf.data' is interpreted as a symbol filter, and the
result is empty, so selection is empty. However,
hist_browser__toggle_fold() forgets to check it.

This patch simply return false when selection is NULL.
