For jump instructions that does not include target address as direct
operand, show the original disassembled line for them. This is needed
for certain powerpc jump instructions that use target address in a
register (such as bctr, btar, ...).

Before:
     ld     r12,32088(r12)
     mtctr  r12
  v  bctr   ffffffffffffca2c
     std    r2,24(r1)
     addis  r12,r2,-1

After:
     ld     r12,32088(r12)
     mtctr  r12
  v  bctr
     std    r2,24(r1)
     addis  r12,r2,-1

Changes in v8:
  - v7: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/21/436
  - Rebase to acme/perf/core
  - No logical changes. (Cross arch annotate patches are in. This patch
    is for hardening annotate for powerpc.)

Please, mention the name of the function where you copy annotated
examples from, so that I can reproduce it here, using the files you
provided (perf.data and vmlinux for powerpc).

Searching one such function now...

Found it, .__bpf_prog_run, that is present in that perf.data file you
sent me, has it, will use it in my committer notes for this patch.

So, I've added these committer notes while testing it, will continue
processing your patches later/tomorrow, thanks!

    Committer notes:
    
    Testing it using a perf.data file and vmlinux for powerpc64,
    cross-annotating it on a x86_64 workstation:
    
    Before:
    
      .__bpf_prog_run  vmlinux.powerpc
             │        std    r10,512(r9)                      ▒
             │        lbz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
             │        rldicr r9,r9,3,60                       ▒
             │        ldx    r9,r30,r9                        ▒
             │        mtctr  r9                               ▒
      100.00 │      ↓ bctr   3fffffffffe01510                 ▒
             │        lwa    r10,4(r31)                       ▒
             │        lwz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
      <SNIP>
      Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
    
    After:
    
      .__bpf_prog_run  vmlinux.powerpc
             │        std    r10,512(r9)                      ▒
             │        lbz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
             │        rldicr r9,r9,3,60                       ▒
             │        ldx    r9,r30,r9                        ▒
             │        mtctr  r9                               ▒
      100.00 │      ↓ bctr                                    ▒
             │        lwa    r10,4(r31)                       ▒
             │        lwz    r9,0(r31)                        ▒
      <SNIP>
      Invalid jump offset: 3fffffffffe01510
    
    This, in turn, uncovers another problem with jumps without operands, the
    ENTER/-> operation, to jump to the target, still continues using the bogus
    target :-)
    
    BTW, this was the file used for the above tests:

Hi Arnaldo,

Can you please review 2nd and 3rd patch.
