Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] perf test: Add kallsyms split test

Create a fake root directory for /proc/{version,modules,kallsyms} in
/tmp for testing.  The kallsyms has a bad symbol in the module and it
causes the main map splitted.  The test ensures it only has two maps -
kernel and the module and it finds the initial map after the module
without creating the split maps like [kernel].0 and so on.

  $ perf test -vv "split kallsyms"
   69: split kallsyms:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 1016196
  try to create fake root directory
  create kernel maps from the fake root directory
  maps__set_modules_path_dir: cannot open /tmp/perf-test.Zrv6Sy/lib/modules/X.Y.Z dir
  Problems setting modules path maps, continuing anyway...
  Failed to open /tmp/perf-test.Zrv6Sy/proc/kcore. Note /proc/kcore requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability to access.
  Using /tmp/perf-test.Zrv6Sy/proc/kallsyms for symbols
  kernel map loaded - check symbol and map
  ---- end(0) ----
   69: split kallsyms                                                  : Ok
