I just noticed that the modules can be gzip'ed on some system
(e.g. Arch) so that it no longer has the ".ko" suffix.

  $ ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs/btrfs/
  btrfs.ko.gz


Actually in this case, the dso->long_name cannot be set since when perf
record synthesizes module map events, it checks the ".ko" suffix
also. :/

And I also guess that if one loads a custom module not in a canonical
path, it again cannot find the long name (absolute path) of the module
and it results in no ".ko" suffix in the long name - so the check will
be broken too.

For non string literals too?  Anyway in this case, it's already broken. :)

Thanks anyway! :)
