Subject: [PATCH V2 9/9] perf buildid-cache: Check relocation when checking for existing kcore

perf buildid-cache does not make another
copy of kcore if the buildid and modules
match an existing copy.  That does not
take into account the possibility that
the kernel has been relocated.  Extend
the check to check if the reference
relocation symbol matches too, otherwise
do make a copy.
