perf kcore_copy: Amend the offset of sections that remap kernel text (2018-05-23 10:26:44 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements:

. Create extra kernel maps to help in decoding samples in x86 PTI entry
trampolines (Adrian Hunter)

. Copy x86 PTI entry trampoline sections in the kcore copy used for
annotation and intel_pt CPU traces decoding (Adrian Hunter)

- Support 'perf annotate --group' for non-explicit recorded event
"groups", showing multiple columns, one for each event, just like
when dealing with explicit event groups (those enclosed with {}) (Jin Yao)

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with
and without libelf support. Where clang is available, it is also used
to build perf with/without libelf, and building with LIBCLANGLLVM=1
(built-in clang) with gcc and clang when clang and its devel libraries
are installed.

The objtool and samples/bpf/ builds are disabled now that I'm switching from
using the sources in a local volume to fetching them from a http server to
build it inside the container, to make it easier to build in a container cluster.
Those will come back later.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.
