When we get sched traces that involve a task that was already
created before opening the event, we won't have the comm event for
it.
So if we can't find the comm event for a given thread, we look at
the traces that may contain these informations.

Representing modules as struct map entries, backed by a DSO, etc,
using /proc/modules to find where the module is loaded.
DSOs now can have a short and long name, so that in verbose mode we
can show exactly which .ko or vmlinux image was used.
As kernel modules now are a DSO separate from the kernel, we can
ask for just the hits for a particular set of kernel modules, just
like we can do with shared libraries:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf report -n --vmlinux
/home/acme/git/build/tip-recvmmsg/vmlinux --modules --dsos \[drm\] | head -15
84.58% 13266 Xorg [k] drm_clflush_pages
4.02% 630 Xorg [k] trace_kmalloc.clone.0
3.95% 619 Xorg [k] drm_ioctl
2.07% 324 Xorg [k] drm_addbufs
1.68% 263 Xorg [k] drm_gem_close_ioctl
0.77% 120 Xorg [k] drm_setmaster_ioctl
0.70% 110 Xorg [k] drm_lastclose
0.68% 106 Xorg [k] drm_open
0.54% 85 Xorg [k] drm_mm_search_free
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
Specifying --dsos /lib/modules/2.6.31-tip/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko
would have the same effect. Allowing specifying just 'drm.ko' is left
for another patch.
Processing kallsyms so that per kernel module struct map are
instantiated was also left for another patch. That will allow
removing the module name from each of its symbols.
struct symbol was reduced by removing the ->module backpointer and
moving it (well now the map) to struct symbol_entry in perf top,
that is its only user right now.
The total linecount went down by ~500 lines.

Peter noticed that we have 3 ways of referring to the idle thread:
[idle]:0
swapper:0
swapper-0
Standardize on 'swapper:0'.

In perf tools, we hardcode the pid 0 cmdline resolving to
"idle" because the init task is not included in the COMM
events.
But the idle tasks secondary cpus are resolved into their
"init" name through the COMM events.
We have then such strange result in perf report (ditto with
trace):
19.66% init [kernel] [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1
17.32% [idle] [kernel] [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1
It's then better to unify the swapper tasks into a single init
name.

The librarization of the thread helpers between annotate and
report lost some perf report specifics.
thread__insert_map() had its most uptodate version in perf
report which cared about partial map overlapping. In case of
overlap between two maps, perf annotate's version removes the
whole old map without considering if it partially or
absolutely overlaps the new map.
We exported the odd version, change it by using the perf
report version.

Factorize the thread management code used by perf-annotate and
perf-report in dedicated source and header files.
v2: pass last_match by address so that it can actually be
modified.
