Subject: Re: [PATCH] perf probe: fix missing references to maps and map in
thread__find_map
Hello,
I think the subject prefix should be "perf tool:" instead of "perf
probe:" as it's generic and not related to perf probe command.

First, can you pleas fix the indentation?
And I'm not sure if it's the right fix. It returns NULL so I think we
should expect al->map and al->maps being NULL. Maybe we need to fix the
caller to handle NULL map or maps properly..
Thanks,
