perf tools: Make it possible to read object code from kernel modules
The new "object code reading" test shows that it is not possible to read object code from kernel modules. That is because the mappings do not map to the dsos. This patch fixes that. This involves identifying and flagging relocatable (ELF type ET_REL) files (e.g. kernel modules) for symbol adjustment and updating map__rip_2objdump() accordingly. The kmodule parameter of dso__load_sym() is taken into use and the module map altered to map to the dso.
