perf machine: Fallback to MAP__FUNCTION if daddr maps are NULL
As we run "perf c2c" on more applications, we noticed we're missing significant samples from a common customer's application. Looking at the /proc/<pid>/maps file for the app, we see "rwxs" and "rwxp" permissions on many of the shared memory & heap regions, and on all the thread stacks. Because those regions have the "x" bit set, perf marks them with a MAP_FUNCTION type. Hence ip_resolve_data() never finds load or store events coming from them. We fixed this by re-calling thread__find_addr_location with MAP__FUNCTION in the case where map is NULL as a last ditch effort to map the sample before giving up and dropping it.
