Hmm.. IIUC for normal dso (ET_DYN), shdr->offset == shdr->sh_addr for
text section right?  And we always adjust ET_EXEC and ET_REL..  What
about always trying to adjust symbol address then?  We may precalculate
adjust offset and subtracting it from symbol values.  And the offset of
0 effectively means no adjust.  This way we can simplify the logic IMHO.

Thanks,
Namhyung
