[PATCH 12/23] perf annotate-data: Handle global variable access

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Tue Mar 19 2024 - 01:53:58 EST


When updating the instruction states, it also needs to handle global
variable accesses. Same as it does for PC-relative addressing, it can
look up the type by address (if it's defined in the same file), or by
name after finding the symbol by address (for declarations).
