Tommi Rantala dbd660e6b2 perf test session topology: Fix data path
Commit 2d4f27999b ("perf data: Add global path holder") missed path
conversion in tests/topology.c, causing the "Session topology" testcase
to "hang" (waits forever for input from stdin) when doing "ssh $VM perf
test".

Can be reproduced by running "cat | perf test topo", and crashed by
replacing cat with true:

  $ true | perf test -v topo
  40: Session topology                                      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 3638
  templ file: /tmp/perf-test-QPvAch
  incompatible file format
  incompatible file format (rerun with -v to learn more)
  free(): invalid pointer
  test child interrupted
  ---- end ----
  Session topology: FAILED!

Committer testing:

Reproduced the above result before the patch and after it is back
working:

  # true | perf test -v topo
  41: Session topology                                      :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 19374

  CPU 6, core 2, socket 0
  CPU 7, core 3, socket 0
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  Session topology: Ok

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
