from quick look I don't understand why we take refcnt down
right after adding to the list.. it would make sense to me
if dso is not stored elsewhere so we want dsos__exit to
release it.. but it's still stored in map object
I checked and we do extra dso__get in machine__findnew_vdso
(and also in dsos__findnew_id) ... so that one seems to me
like the one we should remove
but I might be missing something, I'll try to check more
deeply later on
