Subject[PATCH] perf annotate: Work with vmlinux outside symfs
Date
It is currently possible to use --symfs along with a vmlinux which lies
outside of the symfs by passing an absolute path to --vmlinux, thanks to
the check in dso__load_vmlinux() which handles this explicitly.

However, the annotate code lacks this check and thus perf annotate does
not work ("Internal error: Invalid -1 error code") for kernel functions
with this combination. Add the missing handling.
