+Subject: perf machine: Guard against NULL in machine__exit()
+
+From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
+
+commit 4a2233b194c77ae1ea8304cb7c00b551de4313f0 upstream.
+
+A recent fix for 'perf trace' introduced a bug where
+machine__exit(trace->host) could be called while trace->host was still
+NULL, so make this more robust by guarding against NULL, just like
+free() does.
+
+The problem happens, for instance, when !root users try to run 'perf
+trace':
+
+  [acme@jouet linux]$ trace
+  Error:       No permissions to read /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_(enter|exit)
+  Hint:        Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing'
+
+  perf: Segmentation fault
+  Obtained 7 stack frames.
