Hmm.. this will make map_groups__fixup_end() below not working since
it only updates if the end address of a map is zero.
And about the paranoid check, AFAIK the only case it cares is the
machine__process_kernel_mmap_event() which calls it with
event->mmap.start and event->mmap.start + event->mmap.len. Thus, in
order for the end to be zero, both start and len should be zero. Then
I think this condition can be changed like below:

With above change, I think it work. But the whole point of the above
is to set the end address of vmlinux and modules. And now we don't
need it for modules thanks to modules__parse() for passing the size.
So we only needs to update the end address of vmlinux using the start
address of the first module. What about this then?
Thanks,
Namhyung
