Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fixup module symbol end address properly

I got a strange error on ARM to fail on processing FINISHED_ROUND
record.  It turned out that it was failing in symbol__alloc_hist()
because the symbol size is too big.

When a sample is captured on a specific BPF program, it failed.  I've
added a debug code and found the end address of the symbol is from
the next module which is placed far way.

  ffff800008795778-ffff80000879d6d8: bpf_prog_1bac53b8aac4bc58_netcg_sock    [bpf]
  ffff80000879d6d8-ffff80000ad656b4: bpf_prog_76867454b5944e15_netcg_getsockopt      [bpf]
  ffff80000ad656b4-ffffd69b7af74048: bpf_prog_1d50286d2eb1be85_hn_egress     [bpf]   <---------- here
  ffffd69b7af74048-ffffd69b7af74048: $x.5    [sha3_generic]
  ffffd69b7af74048-ffffd69b7af740b8: crypto_sha3_init        [sha3_generic]
  ffffd69b7af740b8-ffffd69b7af741e0: crypto_sha3_update      [sha3_generic]

The logic in symbols__fixup_end() just uses curr->start to update the
prev->end.  But in this case, it won't work as it's too different.

I think ARM has a different kernel memory layout for modules and BPF
than on x86.  Actually there's a logic to handle kernel and module
boundary.  Let's do the same for symbols between different modules.
