x86/perf: Exclude the debug stack from the callchains
Dumping the callchains from breakpoint events with perf gives strange
results:
3.75% perf [kernel] [k] _raw_read_unlock
|
--- _raw_read_unlock
perf_callchain
perf_prepare_sample
__perf_event_overflow
perf_swevent_overflow
perf_swevent_add
perf_bp_event
hw_breakpoint_exceptions_notify
notifier_call_chain
__atomic_notifier_call_chain
atomic_notifier_call_chain
notify_die
do_debug
debug
munmap
We are infected with all the debug stack. Like the nmi stack, the debug
stack is undesired as it is part of the profiling path, not helpful for
the user.
Ignore it.
