[PATCH perf/core ] [BUGFIX] perf-probe: Remove bias offset to find probe point by address

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Feb 27 2015 - 10:05:25 EST


Remove bias offset to find probe point by address.

Without this patch, probe points on kernel and executables
are shown correctly, but not work with libraries.
-----
# ./perf probe -l
probe:do_fork (on do_fork@kernel/fork.c)
probe_libc:malloc (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so)
probe_perf:strlist__new (on strlist__new@util/strlist.c in /home/mhiramat/ksrc/linux-3/tools/perf/perf)
-----

Removing bias allows to show it as real place.
