Namhyung Kim d6332a176b perf callchain: Fix double mapping al->addr for children without self period
Milian Wolff found a problem he described in [1] and that for him would
get fixed:

"Note how most of the large offset values are now gone. Most notably, we
get proper srcline resolution for the random.h and complex headers."

Then Namhyung found the root cause:

"I looked into it and found a bug handling cumulative (children)
entries.  For children entries that have no self period, the al->addr (so
he->ip) ends up having an doubly-mapped address.

It seems to be there from the beginning but only affects entries that
have no srclines - finding srcline itself is done using a different
address but it will show the invalid address if no srcline was found.  I
think we should fix the commit c7405d85d7 ("perf tools: Update cpumode
for each cumulative entry")."

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
