After install the libelf-dev package and compiling perf, kptr_restrict=2 and perf_event_paranoid=3 will cause perf top to crash, because the value of /proc/kallsyms cannot be obtained, which leads to info->jited_ksyms == NULL. In order to solve this problem, Add a judgment before use.
v3->v4: Fix memory leaks in more places v2->v3: free info_linear memory and move code above, don't do those extra btf checks.
