Yeah, I just tested it with my tip/perf/core and got this:

0.00% 0.00% [kernel] [k] file_free_rcu
0.00% 0.00% [kernel] [k] timerqueue_del
0.00% 0.00% [kernel] [k] irq_work_run
0.00% 0.00% [kernel] [k] native_irq_return_iret
0.00% 0.00% [kernel] [k] native_sched_clock
perf: util/map.c:246: map__exit: Assertion
`!(!((&map->rb_node)->__rb_parent_color == (unsigned long)(&map->rb_node)))' failed.
Aborted
(core dumped)

Tried it again with what is in Linus' tree + your patch and got the same
problem:

[acme@jouet linux]$ git remote -v | grep torvalds.*fetch
torvalds git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git (fetch)
[acme@jouet linux]$ git checkout -b test-branch torvalds/master
Branch test-branch set up to track remote branch master from torvalds.
Switched to a new branch 'test-branch'
[acme@jouet linux]$ git cherry-pick f7347a33099dbad7e9fb3c22cea211f238bfd320
[test-branch 7d786f548b62] perf callchain: Fix a use after free crash due to refcounting bug

Then I run it with a higher frequency and no delay in refreshing the screen, to
stress the refcounting code:

# perf top -F 10000 -g -d 0

Do it while running something like 'make -j32 allmodconfig' to create lots of
short lived processes (or use stress-ng, etc).
