Namhyung Kim 90d78e7b8e perf annotate-data: Show typedef names properly
The die_get_typename() would resolve typedef and get to the original
type.  But sometimes the original type is a struct without name and it
makes the output confusing and hard to read.

This is a diff of perf report -s type before and after the change.
New types such as atomic{,64}_t and sigset_t appeared and the portion
of unnamed struct was reduced.  Also u32, u64 and size_t were splitted
from the base types.

  +     0.08%  seqcount_spinlock_t
  +     0.08%  sigset_t
  +     0.08%  __poll_t

Let's use the typedef name directly and the resolved to get the size of
the type.

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.
