Subject: perf pmu: Add check for valid cpuid in perf_pmu__find_map()

Git-commit: de3d0f12be476271d03f1ddb5a7c241c2f07f126
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
References: fate#325865,fate#325861

On some platforms(arm/arm64) which uses cpus map to get corresponding
cpuid string, cpuid can be NULL for PMUs other than CORE PMUs.  Adding
check for NULL cpuid in function perf_pmu__find_map to avoid
segmentation fault.
