No, could you explain what parts this consists of?
I think this patch is done just one thing. Actually I can rewrite
this as one-line patch like below

        if (asprintf(&filename, "%s%s%s", buildid_dir, slash ? "/" : "",
-                    is_vdso ? DSO__NAME_VDSO : realname) < 0)
+                    is_vdso ? DSO__NAME_VDSO : (is_kallsyms ? 
"[kernel.kallsyms]": realname)) < 0)

But indeed this is not readable so clean it up like below.

Ah, indeed. This is actually not a fix for existing bug, instead
it will prevent buggy behavior. Current function can get any filepath
with is_vdso = true or is_kallsyms = true, but it seems easily giving
contradictory combination.

Hmm, OK, I think I have to solve this issue in another way.

Thanks!
