Dave Martin 696b97a5d2 perf symbols: Ignore mapping symbols on ARM
ARM ELF files use symbols with special names $a, $t, $d to identify regions of
ARM code, Thumb code and data within code sections.  This can cause confusing
output from the perf tools, especially for partially stripped binaries, or
binaries containing user-added zero-sized symbols (which may occur in
hand-written assembler which hasn't been fully annotated with .size
directives).

This patch filters out these symbols at load time.
