perf inject: Add --kallsyms parameter
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Let perf inject take --kallsyms parameter the same as perf script and
perf report do.

That is needed for decoding Instruction Trace data using a copy of
/proc/kcore for the kernel object because the kallsyms path is used to
locate that copy.
