Subject: [PATCHSET 0/6] perf annotate-data: Small updates in the data type profiling (v1)

Hello,

This is a mix of bug fixes and optimization in the data type profiling.

Firstly it now caches global variables and looks them up by address later.
This will be good for performance as well as improves the success rates
because some variables are defined in a separate file (compile unit) and
has no info in the call site for some reason.

Also it properly checks instructions that use more than one register for
a memory access like x86 SIB addressing.  And check the type of stack
variables correctly and discard constant values (without type info).

Thanks,
Namhyung
