This patchset fixes various issues with perf probe on powerpc across ABIv1 and
ABIv2:
- in the presence of DWARF debug-info,
- in the absence of DWARF, but with the symbol table, and
- in the absence of debug-info, but with kallsyms.

Applies cleanly on -tip. Tested on ppc64 BE and LE.

Changes from previous version:
Addressed various review comments from Mike Ellerman largely to generalize
changes. Some of the simpler patches have been retained in their previous form
to limit code churn, while others have been generalized by introducing arch
helpers. Individual patches have more details.

Michael,
Can you please take a quick look at this?

I merged patch 1.

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mpe/linux.git/commit/?h=next&id=bf794bf52a80c6278a028f0af2ca32d7c3508c9b

The rest are not for me, they're perf tools, so you need to convince acme
they're good.

Oh, thanks! Sorry, I didn't realize you had already merged it.
I assume you are ok with my changes in v2 w.r.t your previous review 
comments.

Arnaldo,
Please have a look at this revision and let me know if you have any 
other concerns. Also, I have missed including Ananth's "Reviewed-by" in 
this patchset.  I'm guessing Ananth is ok with this revision as well.
