[PATCH v13 00/11] perf: Support the deferred unwinding infrastructure

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

This is based on top of the deferred unwind core patch series:

 https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250708012239.268642741@kernel.org/
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git
     unwind/core

This series implements the perf interface to use deferred user space stack
tracing.

The code for this series is located here:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git
unwind/perf

Changes since v12: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20250701180410.755491417@goodmis.org/

- Also check against PF_USER_WORKER as io workers do not have PF_KTHREAD
  set.

- Removed deferred_request_nmi() and have NMIs just use the normal
  deferred_request() function. As Peter Zijlstra has stated, in_nmi() can
  nest because some exceptions set in_nmi() and another NMI could come in.

- Removed use of timestamp. The deferred unwind has gone back to using
  cookies, and perf doesn't use the cookie. This means the
  struct perf_callchain_deferred_event is not modified.
