Adrian Hunter b7dbc0be6e perf symbols: Add support for IFUNC symbols for x86_64
For x86_64, the GNU linker is putting IFUNC information in the relocation
addend, so use it to try to find a symbol for plt entries that refer to
IFUNCs.

Example:

  Before:

    $ cat tstpltlib.c
    void fn1(void) {}
    void fn2(void) {}
    void fn3(void) {}
    void fn4(void) {}
    $ cat tstpltifunc.c
    #include <stdio.h>

    void thing1(void)
    {
            printf("thing1\n");
    }

    void thing2(void)
    {
            printf("thing2\n");
    }

    typedef void (*thing_fn_t)(void);

    thing_fn_t thing_ifunc(void)
    {
            int x;

            if (x & 1)
                    return thing2;
            return thing1;
    }

    void thing(void) __attribute__ ((ifunc ("thing_ifunc")));

    void fn1(void);
    void fn2(void);
    void fn3(void);
    void fn4(void);

    int main()
    {
            fn4();
            fn1();
            thing();
            fn2();
            fn3();
            return 0;
    }

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
