Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf symbols: Fix multiple initialization of symbol system

From: Jovi Zhang <bookjovi@...il.com>

By returning immediately if it was already initialized, do it as well at
symbol__exit, refusing multiple deinitializations.

This fixes problems in the kmem, sched and timechart commands.
