    perf annotate: Allow arches to specify functions to skip · 9c2fb451
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
    This is to cope with an ARM specific kludge introduced in the original
    patch supporting ARM annotation, cfef25b8 ("perf annotate: ARM
    support") that made functions with a '+' in its name to be skipped when
    processing call instructions.
    
    With this patchkit it should be possible to collect a perf.data file on
    a ARM machine and then annotate it on a x86 workstation and have those
    ARM kludges used.
