The logic was not looking in the buildid cache for kcore if the host
kernel buildid did not match the recorded kernel buildid.
This affects the non-live case i.e. the kernel has changed and we are
looking at a special copy of kcore that we placed in the buildid cache
(using "perf buildid-cache -v -k /proc/kcore") when the data was
recorded.
After this fix kernel symbols get resolved/annotated correctly.
