Subject[PATCH 6/8] perf tools: Prevent the use of kcore if the kernel has moved
Date
Use of kcore is predicated upon it matching
the recorded data. If the kernel has been
relocated at boot time (i.e. since the data
was recorded) then do not use kcore.

Note that this is possible to make a copy
of kcore at the time the data is recorded
using 'perf buildid-cache'. Then perf tools
will use the copy because it does match the
data.
