From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung....@lge.com>

The hist_entry__sort_snprintf() can return 0 if all of the sort keys
are elided.  In this case a buffer which used for the function would
contain old message or a garbage and printed like below:

  $ perf record -g -e cycles:u abc
  $ perf --report -s comm -c abc
  (...)
  + 100.00%100.00%

Fix it by checking return value.
