[PATCH 6/9] perf symbols: Allow for .plt without header
From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Fri Jan 27 2023 - 12:03:58 EST
A static executable can have a .plt due to the presence of IFUNCs.
In that case the .plt does not have a header. Check for whether
there is a header by comparing the number of entries to the
number of relocation entries.
