Adrian Hunter c271a55b0c perf inject: Fix segfault due to perf_data__fd() without open 
The fixed commit attempts to get the output file descriptor even if the
file was never opened e.g.

  $ perf record uname
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
  $ perf inject -i perf.data --vm-time-correlation=dry-run
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  $ gdb --quiet perf
  Reading symbols from perf...
  (gdb) r inject -i perf.data --vm-time-correlation=dry-run

README 

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.
