Subject: [PATCH] perf test: Adapt test case record+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh for s390

perf test case 58 (record+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh)
executed on s390x using kernel 4.16.0rc3
displays this result:
 # ./perf trace --no-syscalls
           -e probe_libc:inet_pton/call-graph=dwarf/ ping -6 -c 1 ::1
     probe_libc:inet_pton: (3ffa0240448)
	      __GI___inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	      gaih_inet (inlined)
	      __GI_getaddrinfo (inlined)
	      main (/usr/bin/ping)
	      __libc_start_main (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	     _start (/usr/bin/ping)

After I installed kernel 4.16.0 the same tests uses
commands
 # perf record -e probe_libc:inet_pton/call-graph=dwarf/
      -o /tmp/perf.data.abc ping -6 -c 1 ::1
 # perf script -i /tmp/perf.data.abc
and displays:
 ping 39048 [006] 84230.381198: probe_libc:inet_pton: (3ffa0240448)
	       140448 __GI___inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	       fbde1 gaih_inet (inlined)
	       fe2b9 __GI_getaddrinfo (inlined)
	        398d main (/usr/bin/ping)

Nothing else changed including glibc elfutils and other libraries
picked up by the build.
The entries for __libc_start_main and _start are missing.

I bisected missing __libc_start_main and _start to commit
3d20c6246690219881786de10d2dda93f616d0ac
("perf unwind: Unwind with libdw doesn't take symfs into account")

When I undo this commit I get this call stack on s390:
 [root@...lp76 perf]# ./perf script  -i /tmp/perf.data.abc
 ping 39048 [006] 84230.381198: probe_libc:inet_pton: (3ffa0240448)
	140448 __GI___inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	 fbde1 gaih_inet (inlined)
	 fe2b9 __GI_getaddrinfo (inlined)
	  398d main (/usr/bin/ping)
	 22fbd __libc_start_main (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	  457b _start (/usr/bin/ping)

Looks like dwarf functions dwfl_xxx  create different call back
stack trace when using file
/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/ping-20161105-7.fc27.s390x.debug instead of
file /usr/bin/ping.

Fix this test case on s390 and do not expect any call back stack
entry after the main() function. Also be more robust and accept a
leading __GI_ prefix in front of getaddrinfo.

On x86 this test case shows the same call stack using
both kernel versions 4.16.0rc3 and 4.16.0 and also
stops at main:

[root@f27 perf]# ./perf script -i /tmp/perf.data.tmr
ping  4446 [000]   172.027088: probe_libc:inet_pton: (7fdfa08c93c0)
	           1393c0 __GI___inet_pton (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	            fe60d getaddrinfo (/usr/lib64/libc-2.26.so)
	             2f40 main (/usr/bin/ping)
