When perf report on TUI shows callchain it checks first node has
siblings to determine whether it needs to print percentage value.
But it missed a case that first node is NULL. So sometimes it segfaults
like below:
$ perf top -g
perf: Segmentation fault

I don't know why the backtrace didn't print some symbols..
