We need to pass the symbol to the filter so that, for instance,
'perf top' can do filtering and also set the private area it
manages, setting the ->map pointer, etc.

I found this while running 'perf top' on a machine where hits
happened on PLT symbols, where ->map wasn't being set up and
segfaults thus happened.
