DWARF register mappings have not been defined for some architectures,
at least for mips, so we can print an error message and then return
directly when use '--call-graph dwarf'.

E.g. without this patch:

[root@linux perf]# ./perf record --call-graph dwarf cd
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 89 (Function not implemented) for event (cycles).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

With this patch:

[root@linux perf]# ./perf record --call-graph dwarf cd
DWARF is not supported for architecture mips64

 Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
    or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

        --call-graph <record_mode[,record_size]>
                          setup and enables call-graph (stack chain/backtrace):

				record_mode:	call graph recording mode (fp|dwarf|lbr)
				record_size:	if record_mode is 'dwarf', max size of stack recording (<bytes>)
						default: 8192 (bytes)

				Default: fp

Good improvement on the message! But that .config-detected file isn't
available at run time, take a look if this isn't a better alternative:

Hi Arnaldo,

Thank you very much, the following code with #ifdef HAVE_DWARF_SUPPORT
looks good and it works well on the x86 and mips arch.

So I will send a v2 patch as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Tiezhu
