In map_groups__find_symbol() map->map_ip is used without
ensuring the map is loaded. Then the address passed
to map->map_ip isn't mapped at the first time.
E.g. below code always fails to get a symbol at the first call;
addr = /* Somewhere in the kernel text */
symbol_conf.try_vmlinux_path = true;
symbol__init();
host_machine = machine__new_host();
sym = machine__find_kernel_function(host_machine,
addr, NULL, NULL);
/* Note that machine__find_kernel_function calls
map_groups__find_symbol */
This ensures it by calling map__load before using it in
map_groups__find_symbol().
