I think you can run "perf report -s dso,sym -g none" then it will show
"Children" and "Self" overheads.  If callchain in userspace works ok,
you will get non-kernel entries (symbols start with "[.]") having more
children overhead than the self.

  $ perf record -g -- perf bench sched messaging
  
  $ perf report -s dso,sym -g none | grep -F -e Children -e '[.]' | head
  # Children      Self  Shared Object           Symbol
      63.09%     0.01%  perf                    [.] run_bench
      63.09%     0.00%  libc.so.6               [.] __libc_start_call_main
      63.09%     0.00%  perf                    [.] cmd_bench
      63.09%     0.00%  perf                    [.] handle_internal_command
      63.09%     0.00%  perf                    [.] main
      63.09%     0.00%  perf                    [.] run_argv
      63.09%     0.00%  perf                    [.] run_builtin
      63.02%     0.00%  perf                    [.] bench_sched_messaging
      62.79%     0.00%  perf                    [.] group
