perf probe ppc: Fix symbol fixup issues due to ELF type

Browse Source 
If using the symbol table, symbol addresses are not being fixed up
properly, resulting in probes being placed at wrong addresses:

  # perf probe do_fork
  Added new event:
    probe:do_fork        (on do_fork)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:probe/do_fork _text+635952
  # printf "%x" 635952
  9b430
  # grep do_fork /boot/System.map
  c0000000000ab430 T .do_fork

Fix by checking for ELF type ET_DYN used by ppc64 kernels.
