Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fix bug for perf kvm report without guestmount.

Currently, if we use perf kvm --guestkallsyms --guestmodules report,
we can not get the perf information from perf data file. The all sample
are shown as unknown.

Reproducing steps:
	# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules record -a sleep 1
	[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
	[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.624 MB perf.data.guest (~27260 samples) ]
	# perf kvm --guestkallsyms /tmp/kallsyms --guestmodules /tmp/modules report |grep %
	   100.00%  [guest/6471]  [unknown]         [g] 0xffffffff8164f330

This bug is caused when delivery sample. We use perf_session__find_machine_for_cpumode() to find
the machine, and it call perf_session__findnew_machine(). Then we will delivery the sample to a
new machine without kernel mapped.

This patch changes perf_session__findnew_machine() to perf_session__find_machine(), so the sample
will be deliveried to default guest machine if there is no machine specified for it.

Verify steps:
	# ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /home/kallsyms --guestmodules /home/modules record -a sleep 1
	[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
	[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.651 MB perf.data.guest (~28437 samples) ]
	# ./perf kvm --guestkallsyms /home/kallsyms --guestmodules /home/modules report |grep %
