Thanks. The patch
    7b6ff0bdbf4f perf probe ppc64le: Fixup function entry if using 
kallsyms lookup
talked about offset + 8 for kernel symbols.
I guess uprobe symbol might be in the same situation if using the
same compilation mechanism as kernel. But it would be good
to get confirmation from ppc people.
