I forgot to fill in the map_symbol->maps field in append_inlines() which
then makes code down the line segfault when trying to deref it.
It doesn't make any sense to have an addr_location with its 'map' member
not NULL while its 'maps' is NULL, after all al->maps is where al->map
is in.
It is done that way so that we don't have to have in each 'struct map' a
pointer to the 'struct maps' it is in, as we had in the past when we
would have 'map->mg', before 'struct maps' was combined with 'struct
map_groups', because there was always a one-to-one relationship for
these structs.
This fixes a segfault when processing DWARF callgraphs in 'perf report'.

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 Restructured Text 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.
