perf kvm: Finding struct machine fails for PERF_RECORD_MMAP
Running 'perf kvm --host --guest --guestmount /tmp/guestmount record -a -g -- sleep 2'
Was resulting in a segfault. For event type PERF_RECORD_MMAP,
event->ip.pid is being used in perf_session__find_machine_for_cpumode,
which is not correct.
The event->ip.pid field happens to be 0 in this case and results in
returning a NULL machine object. Finally, access to self->pid in
machine__mmap_name, results in a segfault later.
For PERF_RECORD_MMAP type, pass event->mmap.pid.
