it's caused by following commit:
  commit ebe9729c8c3171aa46ad5d7af40acdc29806689d
  Author: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@...achi.com>
  Date:   Wed Nov 18 15:40:24 2015 +0900

it kind of assumes that __machine__create_kernel_maps is called on
machine, but we don't do that in the tests/dwarf-unwind.c,
only following initialization:

        machines__init(&machines);

        machine = machines__find(&machines, HOST_KERNEL_ID);
        if (!machine) {
                pr_err("Could not get machine\n");
                return -1;
        }


we could call machine__create_kernel_maps right here to fix the issue,
(please check attached patch), but I wonder what's the proper interface
we want to have for creating machine..

thanks,
jirka
