perf annotate: Fix objdump comment parsing for Intel mov dissassembly




[ Upstream commit 35a8a148d8c1ee9e5ae18f9565a880490f816f89 ]

The command 'perf annotate' parses the output of objdump and also
investigates the comments produced by objdump. For example the
output of objdump produces (on x86):

23eee:  4c 8b 3d 13 01 21 00 mov 0x210113(%rip),%r15
                                # 234008 <stderr@@GLIBC_2.2.5+0x9a8>

and the function mov__parse() is called to investigate the complete
line. Mov__parse() breaks this line into several parts and finally
calls function comment__symbol() to parse the data after the comment
character '#'. Comment__symbol() expects a hexadecimal address followed
by a symbol in '<' and '>' brackets.

However the 2nd parameter given to function comment__symbol()
always points to the comment character '#'. The address parsing
always returns 0 because the character '#' is not a digit and
strtoull() fails without being noticed.

Fix this by advancing the second parameter to function comment__symbol()
by one byte before invocation and add an error check after strtoull()
has been called.
