[PATCH 2/4] perf symbols: Stop using vmlinux files with no symbols

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu Dec 16 2010 - 07:01:11 EST


From: Franck Bui-Huu <fbuihuu@xxxxxxxxx>

Fail if the kernel image contains no symbol, allowing using other images
in the vmlinux search path that may have a usable symtab.
