Commit 5f307491f3a0 ("MIPS: oprofile: Add callgraph support") introduced an in-kernel userspace prologue scanner, which disappeared with the removal of MIPS OProfile support in e258958945c6 ("arch: mips: Remove CONFIG_OPROFILE support"). The MIPS perf userspace callchain hook remained unimplemented. Follow the former OProfile approach of examining instructions before the sampled PC to find standard MIPS stack adjustments and saved return addresses. Bound each scan to 128 instructions, use nofault user reads, validate frame data and stack progress, and stop at the perf stack limit. Handle o32, n32 and n64 address widths and the actual sw/sd return-address slot widths, rather than relying on the kernel's unsigned long size. Allow the sampled leaf to use the live return-address register, and permit repeated return PCs when the stack advances so recursion is not truncated. This complements the existing MIPS DWARF callchain mechanism, enabled by 1ddc96bd42da ("MIPS: kernel: Support extracting off-line stack traces from user-space with perf") and b5f184fbdb03 ("perf tools: Support MIPS unwinding and dwarf-regs"). With --call-graph dwarf, the kernel records user registers and a stack snapshot for the perf tool to unwind using DWARF information. The new walker instead produces PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN entries in the kernel for ordinary perf -g/--call-graph fp sampling, without requiring DWARF unwind information or a userspace unwinding library. It does not change or replace the DWARF path, which can handle frames beyond the standard prologues recognized by this best-effort scanner. Limit enablement to SB1 and SB1A, whose standard instruction encoding is handled here and which have neither MIPS16 nor microMIPS. Other MIPS CPU types retain their existing userspace callchain behavior. Nonstandard prologues, dynamic stack adjustments and signal trampolines can truncate chains.
