Ian Rogers e90208e9ff perf srcline: Fix handling of inline functions
We write an address then a ',' to addr2line. With inline data we
generally get back (// are my comments):
0x1234    // address
foo       // function name
foo.c:123 // filename:line
bar       // function name
bar.c:123 // filename:line
0x000000000000000 // sentinel address created by ','
??        // unknown function name
??:0      // unknown filename:line

The code was assuming the inline data also had the address, which is
incorrect. This means the first inline function name (bar above) needs
to be checked to see if it is the sentinel, otherwise to be treated as
a function name. The regression was caused by the addition of
addresses as the kernel is reporting a symbol at address 0 (used by
GNU binutils when it interprets ',').

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.
