perf machine: Initialize srcline string member in add_location struct
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946802
commit 57f0ff0 upstream.
It's later supposed to be either a correct address or NULL. Without the
initialization, it may contain an undefined value which results in the
following segmentation fault:
  # perf top --sort comm -g --ignore-callees=do_idle
terminates with:

If you look at the frame #2, the code is:
488	 if (he->srcline) {
489          he->srcline = strdup(he->srcline);
490          if (he->srcline == NULL)
491              goto err_rawdata;
492	 }
If he->srcline is not NULL (it is not NULL if it is uninitialized rubbish),
it gets strdupped and strdupping a rubbish random string causes the problem.
Also, if you look at the commit 1fb7d06, it adds the srcline property
into the struct, but not initializing it everywhere needed.
Committer notes:
Now I see, when using --ignore-callees=do_idle we end up here at line
2189 in add_callchain_ip():
2181         if (al.sym != NULL) {
2182                 if (perf_hpp_list.parent && !*parent &&
2183                     symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &parent_regex))
2184                         *parent = al.sym;
2185                 else if (have_ignore_callees && root_al &&
2186                   symbol__match_regex(al.sym, &ignore_callees_regex)) {
2187                         /* Treat this symbol as the root,
2188                            forgetting its callees. */
2189                         *root_al = al;
2190                         callchain_cursor_reset(cursor);
2191                 }
2192         }
And the al that doesn't have the ->srcline field initialized will be
copied to the root_al, so then, back to:
1211 int hist_entry_iter__add(struct hist_entry_iter *iter, struct addr_location *al,
1212                          int max_stack_depth, void *arg)
1213 {
1214         int err, err2;
1215         struct map *alm = NULL;
1216
1217         if (al)
1218                 alm = map__get(al->map);
1219
1220         err = sample__resolve_callchain(iter->sample, &callchain_cursor, &iter->parent,
1221                                         iter->evsel, al, max_stack_depth);
1222         if (err) {
1223                 map__put(alm);
1224                 return err;
1225         }
1226
1227         err = iter->ops->prepare_entry(iter, al);
1228         if (err)
1229                 goto out;
1230
1231         err = iter->ops->add_single_entry(iter, al);
1232         if (err)
1233                 goto out;
1234
That al at line 1221 is what hist_entry_iter__add() (called from
sample__resolve_callchain()) saw as 'root_al', and then:
        iter->ops->add_single_entry(iter, al);
will go on with al->srcline with a bogus value, I'll add the above
sequence to the cset and apply, thanks!
