Vince reported a crash in the BTS flush code when touching the callchain
data, which was supposed to be initialized as an 'early' callchain,
but intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() does not do that:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
...

It was triggered by fuzzer but can be easily reproduced by:
# perf record -e cpu/branch-instructions/pu -g -c 1
Peter suggested not to allow branch tracing for precise events:
> Now arguably, this is really stupid behaviour. Who in his right mind

> precise_ip is nonsensical.

> So in my mind disallowing precise_ip on BTS would be the simplest fix.
