[PATCH 1/6] perf symbols: Remove unrelated actions from dso__load_kernel_sym

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Fri Nov 20 2009 - 17:52:07 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

It should just load kernel symbols, not load the list of modules. There
are more stuff to move to other routines, but lets do it in several
steps.

End goal is to be able to defer symbol table loading till we find a hit
for that map address range. So that the kernel & modules are handled
just like all the other DSOs in the system.
