With that change the source line is not correctly reported anymore:

with your patch:

# Children Self Source:Line Symbol Shared Object
# ........ ........ ........... ............................... ................
#
98.27% 0.00% f1+4194306 [.] f1 tcall
|

Without:

# Children Self Source:Line Symbol Shared Object
# ........ ........ ........... ............................... ................
#
98.27% 0.00% f1+2 [.] f1 tcall

and also the other way round when debug info is available the lines
in --branch-history output are not correctly resolved anymore.

before:

99.35% 0.00% f1+19 [.] f1 tcall
|
---f1 tcall.c:12
f1 tcall.c:12
f2 tcall.c:7


after
99.35% 5.87% /home/ak/hl [.] f2 tcall
|
|--94.09%-- f2 +27
| f2 +0
| |
| |--69.26%-- f1 +19
| | f1 +14
| | f2 +27


So the source:line improved, but the callgraph entries regressed.

Probably these two cases need to be handled differently.

BTW the commit description is not very clear.
