scripts/faddr2line: Fix overlapping text section failures
There have been some recent reports of faddr2line failures:
$ scripts/faddr2line sound/soundcore.ko sound_devnode+0x5/0x35
bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000000000 end: 0x0000000000000000
$ ./scripts/faddr2line vmlinux.o enter_from_user_mode+0x24
bad symbol size: base: 0x0000000000005fe0 end: 0x0000000000005fe0
The problem is that faddr2line is based on 'nm', which has a major
limitation: it doesn't know how to distinguish between different text
sections. So if an offset exists in multiple text sections in the
object, it may fail.
Rewrite faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on readelf.
Fixes: 67326666e2d4 ("scripts: add script for translating stack dump function offsets")
