    This error condition:
    
      aldebaran:~/linux/linux/Documentation/perf_counter> perf report
      dso__load_sym: cannot get elf header.
      failed to open: /etc/ld.so.cache
      problem processing PERF_EVENT_MMAP, bailing out
    
    caused the profile to be very short - as the error was at the beginning
    of the file and we bailed out completely.
    
    Be more permissive and consider the event broken instead.
