Song Liu 9b86d04d53 perf symbols: Introduce DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_PROG_INFO
Introduce a new dso type DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_PROG_INFO for BPF programs. In
symbol__disassemble(), DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BPF_PROG_INFO dso will call into a new
function symbol__disassemble_bpf() in an upcoming patch, where annotation line
information is filled based bpf_prog_info and btf saved in given perf_env.

Committer notes:

Removed the unnamed union with 'bpf_prog' and 'cache' in 'struct dso',
to fix this bug when exiting 'perf top':

  # perf top
  perf: Segmentation fault
  -------- backtrace --------
  perf[0x5a785a]
  /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x385bf)[0x7fd68443c5bf]

  #
  # addr2line -fe ~/bin/perf 0x4dffb7
  dso_cache__free
  /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/util/dso.c:713

That is trying to access the dso->data.cache, and that is not used with
BPF programs, so we end up accessing what is in bpf_prog.first_member,
b00m.

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.
