faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures, the sequel
If a function lives in a section other than .text, but .text also exists in the object, faddr2line may wrongly assume .text. This can result in comically wrong output. For example: $ scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x1c enter_from_user_mode+0x1c/0x30: find_next_bit at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/./include/linux/find.h:40 (inlined by) perf_clear_dirty_counters at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/arch/x86/events/core.c:2504 Fix it by passing the section name to addr2line, unless the object file is vmlinux, in which case the symbol table uses absolute addresses.
