There is broken that perf now reports address 10b6fa (corresponding to
relocated address 0x000055555565f6fa) but there is no instruction on address
0x000055555565f6fa. If you 'objdump -d' it you cannot find any instruction on
adress 0x000055555565f6fa (or on address 0x10b6fa). There is instruction on
address 0x000055555565f6fb.

Actual:
39e32e gdb_main (/usr/libexec/gdb)
10b6fa main (/usr/libexec/gdb)
Expected:
39e32f gdb_main (/usr/libexec/gdb)
10b6fb main (/usr/libexec/gdb)

I agree perf needs to calculate with 39e32e and 10b6fa. But it should display
to user 39e32f and 10b6fb.
