This reverts commit eddddf4ed7f69697cb54e714e773f764c8d3b67e.

Upstream commit f815fc0c66e7 ("perf unwind-libdw: Fix invalid reference counts"),
was backported to v6.6.128 as eddddf4ed7f6.

However, this commit depends on map_symbol__exit, which was introduced
in v6.7 as commit 56e144fe9826 ("perf mem_info: Add and use
map_symbol__exit and addr_map_symbol__exit") and is absent in v6.6.y.
This results in a build failure.

This is a revert of a backport, so there is no upstream commit.

I confirm map_symbol__exit is missing in 6.6.y:
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/tools/perf/util/map_symbol.h?h=linux-6.6.y
but present later:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/commit/tools/perf/util/map_symbol.h?h=perf-tools-next&id=56e144fe98260a0f8a17326993ceb576ef859ed5
