Subject: perf probe: Fix wrong address verification
Git-commit: 07d369857808b7e8e471bbbbb0074a6718f89b31
Patch-mainline: v5.5-rc1
References: git-fixes

Since there are some DIE which has only ranges instead of the
combination of entrypc/highpc, address verification must use
dwarf_haspc() instead of dwarf_entrypc/dwarf_highpc.

Also, the ranges only DIE will have a partial code in different section
(e.g. unlikely code will be in text.unlikely as "FUNC.cold" symbol). In
that case, we can not use dwarf_entrypc() or die_entrypc(), because the
offset from original DIE can be a minus value.

Instead, this simply gets the symbol and offset from symtab.

Without this patch;

# perf probe -D clear_tasks_mm_cpumask:1
  Failed to get entry address of clear_tasks_mm_cpumask
    Error: Failed to add events.

And with this patch:

# perf probe -D clear_tasks_mm_cpumask:1
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask clear_tasks_mm_cpumask+0
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_1 clear_tasks_mm_cpumask+5
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_2 clear_tasks_mm_cpumask+8
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_3 clear_tasks_mm_cpumask+16
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_4 clear_tasks_mm_cpumask+82

Committer testing:

I managed to reproduce the above:

[root@quaco ~]# perf probe -D clear_tasks_mm_cpumask:1
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask _text+919968
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_1 _text+919973
  p:probe/clear_tasks_mm_cpumask_2 _text+919976
  [root@quaco ~]#

But then when trying to actually put the probe in place, it fails if I
use :0 as the offset:

[root@quaco ~]# perf probe -L clear_tasks_mm_cpumask | head -5
  <clear_tasks_mm_cpumask@/usr/src/debug/kernel-5.2.fc30/linux-5.2.18-200.fc30.x86_64/kernel/cpu.c:0>
        0  void clear_tasks_mm_cpumask(int cpu)
        1  {
        2  	struct task_struct *p;

[root@quaco ~]# perf probe clear_tasks_mm_cpumask:0
  Probe point 'clear_tasks_mm_cpumask' not found.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  [root@quaco

The next patch is needed to fix this case.
