Rename ->prelinked to ->adjust_symbols and making what was done
only for prelinked libraries also to ET_EXEC binaries, such as
/usr/bin/git:
[acme@doppio pahole]$ readelf -h /usr/bin/git | grep Type
Type: EXEC (Executable file)
[acme@doppio pahole]$
And after installing the 'git-debuginfo' package, I get correct results:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf report --sort comm,dso,symbol -d /usr/bin/git | head -20

I'll check what are the last cases where we can't resolve symbols, like
this 0x00000000095e2e later.
And I guess this will fix the problems Mike were seeing too:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ readelf -h ../build/perf/vmlinux | grep Type
