perf tools: Fix segfault due to invalid kernel dso access
Jiri reported that the commit 96d78059d6d9 ("perf tools: Make vmlinux short name more like kallsyms short name") segfaults on perf script. When processing kernel mmap event, it should access the 'kernel' variable as sometimes it cannot find a matching dso from build-id table so 'dso' might be invalid.
