He Kuang 76c588f1f6 perf tools: Find right DSO taking into account if binary is 32 or 64-bit
There's a problem in machine__findnew_vdso(), vdso buildid generated by a
32-bit machine stores it with the name 'vdso', but when processing buildid on a
64-bit machine with the same 'perf.data', perf will search for vdso named as
'vdso32' and get failed.

This patch tries to find the existing dsos in machine->dsos by thread dso_type.
64-bit thread tries to find vdso with name 'vdso', because all 64-bit vdso is
named as that. 32-bit thread first tries to find vdso with name 'vdso32' if
this thread was run on 64-bit machine, if failed, then it tries 'vdso' which
indicates that the thread was run on 32-bit machine when recording.

Committer note:

Additional explanation by Adrian Hunter:

We match maps to builds ids using the file name - consider
machine__findnew_[v]dso() called in map__new().  So in the context of a perf
data file, we consider the file name to be unique.

A vdso map does not have a file name - all we know is that it is vdso.  We look
at the thread to tell if it is 32-bit, 64-bit or x32.  Then we need to get the
build id which has been recorded using short name "[vdso]" or "[vdso32]" or
"[vdsox32]".

The problem is that on a 32-bit machine, we use the name "[vdso]".  If you take
a 32-bit perf data file to a 64-bit machine, it gets hard to figure out if
"[vdso]" is 32-bit or 64-bit.

This patch solves that problem.

 ----

This also merges a followup patch fixing a problem introduced by the
original submission of this patch, that would crash 'perf record' when
recording samples for a 32-bit app on a 64-bit system.
