Subject: [PATCH -tip 3/3] perf-probe: Use the actual address as a hint for
 uprobes

Use the actual address of tracepoint as a hint to find
different local symbols. Since sometimes there are local
symbols which have same name, it is impossible to determine
which symbol should be used. This saves the actual address
from debuginfo and use it as a hint later.

The reason why we don't use the address directly is that
the address stored in the debuginfo has some section offset.
Thus this just uses the last 12 bits of the address as a
hint when searching the symbol in the map.
