perf hists browser: Fix segfault when showing callchain



When perf report on TUI shows callchain it checks first node has
siblings to determine whether it needs to print percentage value.

But it missed a case that first node is NULL.  So sometimes it segfaults
like below:

  $ perf top -g
  perf: Segmentation fault
  -------- backtrace --------
  perf[0x4fcefb]
  /usr/lib/libc.so.6(+0x33b20)[0x7f2a35839b20]
  perf(rb_next+0x8)[0x47d3d8]
  perf[0x4f6058]
  perf[0x4f833b]
  perf[0x4f8610]
  perf[0x4f209e]
  perf(ui_browser__run+0x3a)[0x4f2e6a]
  perf[0x4f94ee]
  perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x94)[0x4fbbf4]
  perf[0x444d10]
  /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0(+0x7314)[0x7f2a37070314]
  /usr/lib/libc.so.6(clone+0x6d)[0x7f2a358ee5bd]

  $ addr2line -e `which perf` 0x4f6058
  /home/namhyung/project/linux/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:553

I don't know why the backtrace didn't print some symbols..
