Fangrui Song dc2cf4ca86 perf unwind: Fix segbase for ld.lld linked objects
segbase is the address of .eh_frame_hdr and table_data is segbase plus
the header size. find_proc_info computes segbase as `map->start +
segbase - map->pgoff` which is wrong when

* .eh_frame_hdr and .text are in different PT_LOAD program headers
* and their p_vaddr difference does not equal their p_offset difference

Since 10.0, ld.lld's default --rosegment -z noseparate-code layout has
such R and RX PT_LOAD program headers.

    ld.lld (default) => perf report fails to unwind `perf record
    --call-graph dwarf` recorded data
    ld.lld --no-rosegment => ok (trivial, no R PT_LOAD)
    ld.lld -z separate-code => ok but by luck: there are two PT_LOAD but
    their p_vaddr difference equals p_offset difference

    ld.bfd -z noseparate-code => ok (trivial, no R PT_LOAD)
    ld.bfd -z separate-code (default for Linux/x86) => ok but by luck:
    there are two PT_LOAD but their p_vaddr difference equals p_offset
    difference

To fix the issue, compute segbase as dso's base address plus
PT_GNU_EH_FRAME's p_vaddr. The base address is computed by iterating
over all dso-associated maps and then subtract the first PT_LOAD p_vaddr
(the minimum guaranteed by generic ABI) from the minimum address.

In libunwind, find_proc_info transitively called by unw_step is cached,
so the iteration overhead is acceptable.

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.
