However it has `.cold` suffix, it means the code has been relocated as ["cold" function](https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Function-Attributes.html#index-cold-function-attribute). In GDB, we can see the code in another area from function body as following:

As you can see in assembler dump, the code in `.cold` section is `call` instruction, thus IP points next `nop`, thus we should allow address range between `start` and `start + size`.
