Hi John,
   Yes I agree with Namhyung.
So, this is our original checks

if (rc && verbose) {
		pr_info("%s: Error walking file tree %s\n", prog, ldirname);
		goto empty_map;
	} else if (rc < 0) {
		/* Make build fail */
		fclose(eventsfp);
		free_arch_std_events();
		ret = 1;
		goto out_free_mapfile;
	} else if (rc) {
		goto empty_map;
	}

May be we can use similar checks:

if( verbose)
  pr_info("%s: Error walking file tree %s%s\n", prog, ldirname,err_string_ext);
if(rc > 0)
   empty_map = 1;
else
  ret = 1;

Thanks,
Kajol Jain
