Further investigation reveals that this occurs in the `perf script tests`,
because it uses `db_test.py` script. This script sets `perf_db_export_mode = True`.

With `perf_db_export_mode` enabled, if a sample originates from a hypervisor,
perf doesn't set maps for "[H]" sample in the code. Consequently, `al->maps` remains NULL
when `maps__machine(al->maps)` is called from `db_export__sample`.

As al->maps can be NULL in case of Hypervisor samples , use thread->maps
because even for Hypervisor sample, machine should exist.
If we don't have machine for some reason, return -1 to avoid segmentation fault.
