Subject: arm64: __show_regs: Only resolve kernel symbols when running at EL1

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

commit a06f818a70de21b4b3b4186816094208fc7accf9 upstream.

__show_regs pretty prints PC and LR by attempting to map them to kernel
function names to improve the utility of crash reports. Unfortunately,
this mapping is applied even when the pt_regs corresponds to user mode,
resulting in a KASLR oracle.

Avoid this issue by only looking up the function symbols when the register
state indicates that we're actually running at EL1.
