If jump target is outside of function range, perf is not handling it
correctly. Especially when target address is lesser than function start
address, target offset will be negative. But, target address declared to
be unsigned, converts negative number into 2's complement. See below
example. Here target of 'jumpq' instruction at 34cf8 is 34ac0 which is
lesser than function start address(34cf0).

        34ac0 - 34cf0 = -0x230 = 0xfffffffffffffdd0

Objdump output:

  0000000000034cf0 <__sigaction>:
  __GI___sigaction():
    34cf0: lea    -0x20(%rdi),%eax
