perf tools: Bail out at "--sort dcacheline" and cacheline_size not known
There are cases where further work would be needed to overcome the fact that neither sysconf(_SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE) nor /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index0/coherency_line_size are available in some systems (Android, for instance), so bail out when such a situation takes place.
