This won't print anything and ignore the file which changes
the existing behavior.  But if it fails to read the build-id, I
don't think there is not much we can do with it.  IIUC the
original intention of -M/--missing option is to list files that
have a build-id but it's not in the build-id cache.  So maybe
it's ok to silently ignore it.

Thanks,
Namhyung
