[PATCH V1 08/19] perf tools: Fix map_groups__split_kallsyms() for entry trampoline symbols

[Adrian Hunter]

When kernel symbols are derived from /proc/kallsyms only (not using vmlinux
or /proc/kcore) map_groups__split_kallsyms() is used. However that function
makes assumptions that are not true with entry trampoline symbols. For now,
remove the entry trampoline symbols at that point, as they are no longer
needed at that point.
