I think we need to check inlined srcline as well.  There might be a
case that two samples have different addresses (and from different
callchains) but happens to be mapped to a same srcline IMHO.

What about keeping number of entries in a inline_node so that we can
check the numbers for faster comparison?

I guess it'd be better just returning the match result.  Otherwise
MATCH_ERROR will be converted to MATCH_EQ..
