[PATCH] perf symbols: remove incorrect open-coded container_of()

[Rabin Vincent]

At least on ARM, padding is inserted between rb_node and sym in struct
symbol_name_rb_node, causing "((void *)sym) - sizeof(struct rb_node)" to
point inside rb_node rather than to the symbol_name_rb_node.  Fix this
by converting the code to use container_of().
