Ian Rogers 52571a05bc perf evsel: Avoid container_of on a NULL leader
[ Upstream commit 2354479026d726954ff86ce82f4b649637319661 ]

An evsel should typically have a leader of itself, however, in tests
like 'Sample parsing' a NULL leader may occur and the container_of
will return a corrupt pointer.

Avoid this with an explicit NULL test.

Fixes: fba7c86601 ("libperf: Move 'leader' from tools/perf to perf_evsel::leader")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
