perf cs-etm: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference found by the smatch tool
Based on the following report from Smatch, fix the potential NULL pointer dereference check.
tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c:2545 cs_etm__process_auxtrace_info() error: we previously assumed 'session->itrace_synth_opts' could be null (see line 2541)
tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c 2541 if (session->itrace_synth_opts && session->itrace_synth_opts->set) { 2542 etm->synth_opts = *session->itrace_synth_opts; 2543 } else { 2544 itrace_synth_opts__set_default(&etm->synth_opts, 2545 session->itrace_synth_opts->default_no_sample); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 2546 etm->synth_opts.callchain = false; 2547 }
'session->itrace_synth_opts' is impossible to be a NULL pointer in cs_etm__process_auxtrace_info(), thus this patch removes the NULL test for 'session->itrace_synth_opts'.
