      perf symbols: Fix JIT symbol resolution on heap · 578c03c8
      Namhyung Kim authored
      
      
      Gaurav reported that perf cannot profile JIT program if it executes the
      code on heap.  This was because current map__new() only handle JIT on
      anon mappings - extends it to handle no_dso (heap, stack) case too.
      
      This patch assumes JIT profiling only provides dynamic function symbols
      so check the mapping type to distinguish the case.  It'd provide no
      symbols for data mapping - if we need to support symbols on data
      mappings later it should be changed.

        This includes moving the functionality in

        can be reused - this will be used by the final MPX patches.
