perf probe: Fix to fall back to find probe point in symbols

Fix to fall back to find a probe point in symbols if perf fails to find
it in debuginfo.

This can happen when the target function is an alias of another
function. Such alias doesn't have an entry in debuginfo but in symbols.

David Ahern reported this problem in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/29/355

I ensured the problem and deeper investigation discovers it.

All these entires have no instances (all of them are declarations)
This is why the perf probe failed to find it in debuginfo.

However, there are some malloc instances in symbols.

As you an see, malloc and __libc_malloc have same address, and actually
__libc_malloc has an entry in debuginfo. So you can set up a probe on
__libc_malloc.

To fix this problem shortly, perf probe simply falls back to find probe
point(malloc) in symbols if it is not found in debuginfo.
