When loading kcore, the main vmlinux map is updated in the same loop
that merges the remaining maps. If a map that overlaps is merged in
before kcore, the list can become unsortable when the main map addresses
are updated. This will later trigger the check_invariants() assert:
$ perf record
$ perf report
util/maps.c:96: check_invariants: Assertion `map__end(prev) <=
map__start(map) || map__start(prev) == map__start(map)' failed.
Aborted
Fix it by moving the main map update prior to the loop so that
maps__merge_in() can split it if necessary.
Fixes: 659ad3492b ("perf maps: Switch from rbtree to lazily sorted array for addresses")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
