perf powerpc: Fix callchain ip filtering

For powerpc64, redundant entries in the callchain are filtered out by
determining the state of the return address and the stack frame using
DWARF debug information.

For making these filtering decisions we must analyze the debug
information for the location corresponding to the program counter value,
i.e. the first entry in the callchain, and not the LR value; otherwise,
perf may filter out either the second or the third entry in the
callchain incorrectly.

This can be observed on a powerpc64le system running Fedora 27 as shown
below.

Case 1 - Attaching a probe at inet_pton+0x8 (binary offset 0x15af28).
         Return address is still in LR and a new stack frame is not yet
         allocated. The LR value, i.e. the second entry, should not be
	 filtered out.

Case 2 - Attaching a probe at _int_malloc+0x180 (binary offset 0x9cf10).
         Return address in still in LR and a new stack frame has already
         been allocated but not used. The caller's caller, i.e. the third
	 entry, is invalid and should be filtered out and not the second
	 one.
