perf: Fix race in callchains
Now that software events don't have interrupt disabled anymore in
the event path, callchains can nest on any context. So seperating
nmi and others contexts in two buffers has become racy.
Fix this by providing one buffer per nesting level. Given the size
of the callchain entries (2040 bytes * 4), we now need to allocate
them dynamically.
v2: Fixed put_callchain_entry call after recursion.
Fix the type of the recursion, it must be an array.
v3: Use a manual pr cpu allocation (temporary solution until NMIs
can safely access vmalloc'ed memory).
Do a better separation between callchain reference tracking and
allocation. Make the "put" path lockless for non-release cases.
v4: Protect the callchain buffers with rcu.
v5: Do the cpu buffers allocations node affine.
