Subject: [PATCH 4.9 146/241] perf session: Dont rely on evlist in pipe mode

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@...gle.com>


[ Upstream commit 0973ad97c187e06aece61f685b9c3b2d93290a73 ]

Session sets a number parameters that rely on evlist. These parameters
are not used in pipe-mode and should not be set, since evlist is
unavailable. Fix that.
