Correct the broken uapi for the BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type
by exporting the user_pt_regs structure instead of the pt_regs structure
that is in-kernel only.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- struct thread_info moved off-stack (also touching
include/linux/thread_info.h and include/linux/restart_block.h)
- cpus_have_cap() reworked to avoid __builtin_constant_p() for static
key use (also touching drivers/irqchip/irq-gic-v3.c)
- uprobes support (currently only for native 64-bit tasks)
- Emulation of kernel Privileged Access Never (PAN) using TTBR0_EL1
switching to a reserved page table
- CPU capacity information passing via DT or sysfs (used by the
scheduler)
- support for systems without FP/SIMD (IOW, kernel avoids touching
these registers; there is no soft-float ABI, nor kernel emulation for
AArch64 FP/SIMD)
- handling of hardware watchpoint with unaligned addresses, varied
lengths and offsets from base
- use of the page table contiguous hint for kernel mappings
- hugetlb fixes for sizes involving the contiguous hint
- remove unnecessary I-cache invalidation in flush_cache_range()
- CNTHCTL_EL2 access fix for CPUs with VHE support (ARMv8.1)
- boot-time checks for writable+executable kernel mappings
- simplify asm/opcodes.h and avoid including the 32-bit ARM counterpart
and make the arm64 kernel headers self-consistent (Xen headers patch
merged separately)
- Workaround for broken .inst support in certain binutils versions

KVM calls kvm_pmu_set_counter_event_type() when PMCCFILTR is configured.
But this function can't deals with PMCCFILTR correctly because the evtCount
bits of PMCCFILTR, which is reserved 0, conflits with the SW_INCR event
type of other PMXEVTYPER<n> registers. To fix it, when eventsel == 0, this
function shouldn't return immediately; instead it needs to check further
if select_idx is ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX.
Another issue is that KVM shouldn't copy the eventsel bits of PMCCFILTER
blindly to attr.config. Instead it ought to convert the request to the
"cpu cycle" event type (i.e. 0x11).
To support this patch and to prevent duplicated definitions, a limited
set of ARMv8 perf event types were relocated from perf_event.c to
asm/perf_event.h.

We define current_stack_pointer in <asm/thread_info.h>, though other
files and header relying upon it do not have this necessary include, and
are thus fragile to changes in the header soup.
Subsequent patches will affect the header soup such that directly
including <asm/thread_info.h> may result in a circular header include in
some of these cases, so we can't simply include <asm/thread_info.h>.
Instead, factor current_thread_info into its own header, and have all
existing users include this explicitly.

To use the ARMv8 PMU related register defines from the KVM code, we move
the relevant definitions to asm/perf_event.h header file and rename them
with prefix ARMV8_PMU_. This allows us to get rid of kvm_perf_event.h.

We currently bundle the callchain handling code with the PMU code,
despite the fact the two are distinct, and the former can be useful even
in the absence of the latter.
Follow the example of arch/arm and factor the callchain handling into
its own file dependent on CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS rather than
CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS.

For ARM64, when tracing with tracepoint events, the IP and pstate are set
to 0, preventing the perf code parsing the callchain and resolving the
symbols correctly.
./perf record -e sched:sched_switch -g --call-graph dwarf ls
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.146 MB perf.data ]
./perf report -f
Samples: 194 of event 'sched:sched_switch', Event count (approx.): 194
Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
100.00% 100.00% ls [unknown] [.] 0000000000000000
The fix is to implement perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs for ARM64, which fills
several necessary registers used for callchain unwinding, including pc,sp,
fp and spsr .
With this patch, callchain can be parsed correctly as follows:
......
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vfs_symlink
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] follow_down
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pfkey_get
+ 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_execveat_common.isra.33
- 2.63% 0.00% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pfkey_send_policy_notify
pfkey_send_policy_notify

Add minimal guest support to perf, so it can distinguish whether
the PMU interrupt was in the host or the guest, as well as collecting
some very basic information (guest PC, user vs kernel mode).
This is not feature complete though, as it doesn't support backtracing
in the guest.
Based on the x86 implementation, tested with KVM/arm64.
