perf annotate-data: Check memory access with two registers
The following instruction pattern is used to access a global variable.
mov $0x231c0, %rax
movsql %edi, %rcx
mov -0x7dc94ae0(,%rcx,8), %rcx
cmpl $0x0, 0xa60(%rcx,%rax,1) <<<--- here
The first instruction set the address of the per-cpu variable (here, it
is 'runqueues' of type 'struct rq'). The second instruction seems like
a cpu number of the per-cpu base. The third instruction get the base
offset of per-cpu area for that cpu. The last instruction compares the
value of the per-cpu variable at the offset of 0xa60.
