Well, there was no assumption that 'perf report' would run on the same
directory as 'perf record', the user may have moved to a different
directory or transferred the perf.data file to a different machine.
Also it would have to check that the vmlinux on the path is suitable
(that build-id matches), currently it does that just at 'perf report'
time, that is when it will need to use it. At record time we just
collect the build-ids.
With that in mind, how do you think it should be phrased?
