This patch set is similar to a set of features I implemented for bcc
back in April.  At a high-level it does the following:

- Allow the tracing tools to resolve symbols if the traced process has a
  binary that is in a different mount namespace from perf.

- Allow the perf-<pid>.map files to live either in /tmp in the target
  process' mount namespace, or the tracing process's /tmp in its own
  mount namespace.

- Adds the ability to set and record against uprobes and USDT probes
  when the target process resides in a different mount namespace.

With these changes I can get pretty good insight into what containerized
processes on my systems are doing.  In addition to the above, I also
modified the builid cache code to cache relevant bits from the target
namespaces so that it's possible to preserve more information should a
container exit and take the mounted volumes along with it.

Krister Johansen (7):
  perf symbols: find symbols in different mount namespace
  perf maps: lookup maps in both intitial mountns and inner mountns.
  perf probe: allow placing uprobes in alternate namespaces.
  perf buildid-cache: support binary objects from other namespaces
  perf top: support lookup of symbols in other mount namespaces.
  perf documentation: updates for target-ns.
  perf buildid-cache: cache debuginfo
