perf symbols: Accept zero as the kernel base address

Which is the case in S/390, where symbols were not being resolved
because machine__get_kernel_start was only setting machine->kernel_start
when the just successfully loaded kernel symtab had its map->start set
to !0, when it was left at (1ULL << 63) assuming a partitioning of the
address space for user/kernel, which is not the case in S/390 nor in
Sparc.

So just check if map__load() was successfull and set
machine->kernel_start to zero, fixing kernel symbol resolution on S/390.

  I like this patch. I have done a new build and removed all my debug output to start
  from scratch. Without your patch I get this:

  # Samples: 4  of event 'cpu-clock'
  # Event count (approx.): 1000000
  #
  # Children      Self  Command  Shared Object     Symbol

                            0x26fa84

  and with your patch (I just rebuilt the perf tool, nothing else and used the same
  perf.data file as input):

  # Samples: 4  of event 'cpu-clock'
  # Event count (approx.): 1000000
  #

                 |
                  --25.00%--lock_release

  Looks good to me....
