And that commit has *NOT* solved the problem.  perf_callchain_user()
can be called synchronously, without passing through that code.
Tracepoint shite...

That set_fs() should be done in get_perf_callchain(), just around the call of
perf_callchain_user().  Along with pagefault_disable(), actually.

BTW, that's a nice example demonstrating why doing that on the kernel
boundary is wrong.  Wider (in theory) area being "protected" => easier
to miss the ways not crossing its border.
