How so? This is done just when loading a DSO, when then each symbol is
checked against this list.

Tangentially, Frédéric, wasn't there a patchset from you that marks the
context of idle samples, in perf_event_header->misc, additiotally to
PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL, etc? I think there were some for IRQ context as
well, right?
