Masami Hiramatsu eb4717f733 perf probe: Fix debuginfo__new() to enable build-id based debuginfo
Fix debuginfo__new() to set the build-id to dso before
dso__read_binary_type_filename() so that it can find
DSO_BINARY_TYPE__BUILDID_DEBUGINFO debuginfo correctly.

However, this may not change the result, because elfutils (libdwfl) has
its own debuginfo finder. With/without this patch, the perf probe
correctly find the debuginfo file.

This is just a failsafe and keep code's sanity (if you use
dso__read_binary_type_filename(), you must set the build-id to the dso.)

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.
