Subject[PATCH] perf annotate: Fix sample events lost in stdio mode
Date
In hist__find_annotations function, since have a hist_entry per IP for the same
symbol, we free notes->src to signal already processed this symbol in stdio mode;
when annotate, entry will skipped if notes->src is NULL to avoid repeated output.

However, there is a problem, for example, run the following command:

# perf record -e branch-misses -e branch-instructions -a sleep 1

perf.data file contains different types of sample event.

If the same IP sample event exists in branch-misses and branch-instructions,
this event uses the same symbol. When annotate branch-misses events, notes->src
corresponding to this event is set to null, as a result, when annotate
branch-instructions events, this event is skipped and no annotate is output.

Solution of this patch is to add a u8 member to struct sym_hist and use a bit to
indicate whether the symbol has been processed.
Because different types of event correspond to different sym_hist, no conflict
occurs.
