Indeed, perf already can resolve user-space symbols and DSOs if cpumode has
the flag PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER. I found this change is incorrect.
To solve this, I'd like to set both flags PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL and USER
to BTS records, because BTS traces both kernel and user space while it
generates interrupts.

And also, I think there is the probrem in thread__find_addr_map().
When this function is called with cpumode that is set (PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL | USER),
this function processes only PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL. So, I'd like to fix it too.

Thank you.
