Subject: [PATCH 11/18] perf symbols: Use proper dso name for is_regular_file

From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@...hat.com>

Marc reported use of uninitialized memory:

> In commit "403567217d3f perf symbols: Do not read symbols/data from
> device files" a check to uninitialzied memory was added. This leads to

The reason was a typo that passed global 'name' variable as the
is_regular_file argument instead dso->long_name.
