perf probe ppc: Enable matching against dot symbols automatically
Allow perf probe to work on ppc ABIv1 without the need to specify the leading dot '.' for functions. 'perf probe do_fork' works with this patch. We do this by changing how symbol name comparison works on ppc ABIv1 - we simply ignore and skip over the initial dot, if one exists, during symbol name comparison. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
