Rob Gardner 833526941f sparc64: Perf should save/restore fault info
There have been several reports of random processes being killed with
a bus error or segfault during userspace stack walking in perf.  One
of the root causes of this problem is an asynchronous modification to
thread_info fault_address and fault_code, which stems from a perf
counter interrupt arriving during kernel processing of a "benign"
fault, such as a TSB miss. Since perf_callchain_user() invokes
copy_from_user() to read user stacks, a fault is not only possible,
but probable. Validity checks on the stack address merely cover up the
problem and reduce its frequency.

The solution here is to save and restore fault_address and fault_code
in perf_callchain_user() so that the benign fault handler is not
disturbed by a perf interrupt.
