powerpc, perf: Check that current->mm is alive before getting user callchain
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc, perf: Check that current->mm is alive before getting user callchain
It may happen that mm is already released, which leads to kernel panic.
This adds the NULL check for current->mm, similarly to
commit 20afc60f892d ("x86, perf: Check that current->mm is alive before getting user callchain").
I was getting this panic when running a profiling BPF program
(profile.py from bcc-tools):
[26215.051935] Kernel attempted to read user page (588) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)

[...]
In addition, move storing the top-level stack entry to generic
perf_callchain_user to make sure the top-evel entry is always captured,
even if current->mm is NULL.
