Currently, record_relative_base() iterates over the entire table to find the minimum address, but it is not efficient because we sort the table anyway. After sort_symbol(), the table is sorted by address. (kallsyms parses the 'nm -n' output, so the data is already sorted by address, but this commit does not rely on it.) Move record_relative_base() after sort_symbols(), and take the first non-absolute symbol value.
