With --call-graph option, perf report can display call chains using
type, min percent threshold, optional print limit and order. And the
default call-graph parameter is 'graph,0.5,caller,function,percent'.

Before this patch, 'perf report --call-graph' shows incorrect debug
messages as below:
[root@localhost perf]# ./perf report --call-graph
Invalid callchain mode: 0.5
Invalid callchain order: 0.5
Invalid callchain sort key: 0.5
Invalid callchain config key: 0.5
Invalid callchain mode: caller
Invalid callchain mode: function
Invalid callchain order: function
Invalid callchain mode: percent
Invalid callchain order: percent
Invalid callchain sort key: percent

That is because in function __parse_callchain_report_opt(),each field
of the call-graph parameter is passed to parse_callchain_{mode,order,
sort_key,value} in turn until it meets the matching value.

For example, the order field "caller" is passed to parse_callchain_mode()
firstly and obviously it doesn't match any mode field. Therefore
parse_callchain_mode() will shows the debug message "Invalid callchain
mode: caller", which could confuse users.

The patch fixes this issue by moving the warning out of the function
parse_callchain_{mode,order,sort_key,value}.
