tool_pmu__event_to_str() now handles skipped events by returning NULL,
so it's wrong to re-check for a skip on the resulting string. Calling
tool_pmu__skip_event() with a NULL string results in a segfault so
remove the unnecessary skip to fix it:
$ perf test -vv "parsing with PMU name"
12.2: Parsing with PMU name:
...
---- unexpected signal (11) ----
12.2: Parsing with PMU name : FAILED!

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
