[PATCH] perf symbols: don't use modules or try vmlinux unless needed

[Jamie Iles]

Commit 75be6cf (perf symbols: Make symbol_conf global) does what it says
on the tin, but also initialises the member fields use_modules and
try_vmlinux_path to true rather than the 'false' value they would have
had when symbol_conf was static.

When there is no vmlinux on the system and modules loaded, perf top will
not show any kernel symbols and perf report will only list raw IP's
rather than symbol names. Unloading the modules will allow perf to give
normal output.

Restore previous behaviour by initialising these fields to false.
