Hi,
here are the fixes I promised. These patches should fix the crashes
David and Jason have seen by making sure no sample is processed when
ther is no valid machine object for it. The second patch also changes
the perf_guest default back to false.
v1->v2:
* Introduced counter for unprocessable samples
* Added ui warnings when unprocessable samples are found
Regards,
Joerg
