[PATCH 1/4] perf tools: Do not read symbols/data from device files

[Jiri Olsa]

With mem sampling we could get data source within mapped
device file. Processing such sample would block during
report phase on trying to read the device file.

Chacking for device files and skip the processing if
it's detected.
