Hey Arnaldo,

just noticed this email and that the corresponding patch hasn't landed in 
perf/core yet. The patch set which introduced this is a64489c56c307 ("perf 
report: Find the inline stack for a given address"). Note that the code was 
introduced by this patch, but then subsequently touched and moved by follow up 
patches. So, is this the patch you want to see referenced? Otherwise, the 
latest patch which gets fixed is afaik: 7285cf3325b4a ("perf srcline: Show 
correct function name for srcline of callchains").

Can you please pick either of these patches and amend the commit message of my 
patch and push it to perf/urgent and perf/core?

Cheers
