libdwfl: Check for kernel debuginfo file without .debug extension as well
Elfutils, looking for kernel debuginfo file, tries to find it at various places. If elfutils finds /boot/vmlinu*x* file, it checks for debufginfo section. If debuginfo is not present, it saves it as 'main elf' and continue looking for debuginfo file having .debug extension i.e. vmlinux-RELEASE.debug. 'Ubuntu on powerpc' installs kernel as /boot/vmlinux and installs debuginfo without any extension as /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-RELEASE and hence, elfutils is not able to find the debuginfo file. Here is the launchpad bug for the same: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemtap/+bug/1537125 This patch adds functionality to search for a kernel or debuginfo file both with and without .debug extension.
