As a new perf tool  can run on old kernels we may need to have this be
something like:
(loc->offset == 40 /* pre v6.xx kernels */ || loc->offset == 0 /*
v6.xx and later */ )

We could make this dependent on the kernel by processing the os_release string:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/util/env.h#n55
but that could well be more trouble than it is worth.

Thanks,
Ian
