perf intel-pt: 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/intel-pt.c:3200 intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() error: we previously assumed 'session->itrace_synth_opts' could be null (see line 3196)
tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c:3206 intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'session->itrace_synth_opts' (see line 3200)
tools/perf/util/intel-pt.c 3196 if (session->itrace_synth_opts && session->itrace_synth_opts->set) { 3197 pt->synth_opts = *session->itrace_synth_opts; 3198 } else { 3199 itrace_synth_opts__set_default(&pt->synth_opts, 3200 session->itrace_synth_opts->default_no_sample); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 3201 if (!session->itrace_synth_opts->default_no_sample && 3202 !session->itrace_synth_opts->inject) { 3203 pt->synth_opts.branches = false; 3204 pt->synth_opts.callchain = true; 3205 } 3206 if (session->itrace_synth_opts) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 3207 pt->synth_opts.thread_stack = 3208 session->itrace_synth_opts->thread_stack; 3209 }
'session->itrace_synth_opts' is impossible to be a NULL pointer in intel_pt_process_auxtrace_info(), thus this patch removes the NULL test for 'session->itrace_synth_opts'.
