Subject: [PATCH 5/6] perf report: Don't crash on invalid inline debug information

From: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@...b.com>

When the function name for an inline frame is invalid, we must not try
to demangle this symbol, otherwise we crash with:

  #0  0x0000555555895c01 in bfd_demangle ()
  #1  0x0000555555823262 in demangle_sym (dso=0x555555d92b90, elf_name=0x0, kmodule=0) at util/symbol-elf.c:215

So instead handle the case where we get invalid function names for
inlined frames and use a fallback '??' function name instead.

While this crash was originally reported by Hadrien for rust code, I can
now also reproduce it with trivial C++ code. Indeed, it seems like
libbfd fails to interpret the debug information for the inline frame
symbol name:

  $ addr2line -e /home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf -if b48
  main
  /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:610
  ??
  /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:618
  ??
  /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:675
  ??
  /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:685
  main
  /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39

I've reported this bug upstream and also attached a patch there which
should fix this issue:
