From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx> The parse_build_id_buf does not account Elf32_Nhdr header size when getting the build id data pointer and returns wrong build id data as result. This is problem only for stable trees that merged 768d731b8a0d fix, the upstream build id code was refactored and returns proper build id.
