When trying to load a module with "mod -s" without its separated debug
info file installed, the crash utility will abort as below:
crash> mod -s kpatch_test kpatch_test.ko
...
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'
what(): basic_string::_M_construct null not valid
Aborted (core dumped)
Let's return the std::string() instead of std::string(NULL) when a
string is null, because the check_specified_kernel_debug_file() may
return NULL.
