Now it can use the capstone library to disassemble the instructions. Let's use that (if available) for perf annotate to speed up. Currently it only supports x86 architecture. With this change I can see ~3x speed up in data type profiling. But note that capstone cannot give the source file and line number info. For now, users should use the external objdump for that by specifying the --objdump option explicitly.

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 reStructuredText 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.
