  Arm64 doesn't have Model in /proc/cpuinfo and, thus, cpu_desc doesn't get
assigned.

Running
	$ perf data convert --to-json perf.data.json

ends up calling output_json_string() with NULL pointer, which causes a
segmentation fault.

    - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240111232923.8138-1-ilkka@os.amperecomputing.com/
v2:
    - Changed the patch based on James's comments.
v3:
    - The architecture is checked from the actual data file to allow one to do
      conversion on another system. (thanks to James for the feedback)
    - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240117215101.77713-1-ilkka@os.amperecomputing.com/
v4:
    - Made the fix more generic in case there are other architectures where cpu_desc
      isn't assigned as asked by Namhyung
    - Rephrased the subject line
