[PATCH 1/9] perf annotate-data: Parse 'lock' prefix from llvm-objdump

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Jan 17 2024 - 01:27:24 EST


For the performance reason, I prefer llvm-objdump over GNU's. But I
found that llvm-objdump puts x86 lock prefix in a separate line like
below.

ffffffff81000695: f0 lock
ffffffff81000696: ff 83 54 0b 00 00 incl 2900(%rbx)

This should be parsed properly, but I just changed to find the insn
with next offset for now.

This improves the statistics as it can process more instructions.

Annotate data type stats:
total 294, ok 144 (49.0%), bad 150 (51.0%)
-----------------------------------------------------------
30 : no_sym
35 : no_mem_ops
71 : no_var
6 : no_typeinfo
8 : bad_offset
