[PATCH 2/3] perf/core: Fix MMAP event path names with backing files

[Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>]

Some file systems like FUSE-based ones or overlayfs may record the backing
file in struct vm_area_struct vm_file, instead of the user file that the
user mmapped.

Since commit def3ae83da02f ("fs: store real path instead of fake path in
backing file f_path"), file_path() no longer returns the user file path
when applied to a backing file.  There is an existing helper
file_user_path() for that situation.

Use file_user_path() instead of file_path() to get the path for MMAP
and MMAP2 events.

Example:

  Setup:

    # cd /root
    # mkdir test ; cd test ; mkdir lower upper work merged
    # cp `which cat` lower
    # mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
    # perf record -e intel_pt//u -- /root/test/merged/cat /proc/self/maps
    ...
    55b0ba399000-55b0ba434000 r-xp 00018000 00:1a 3419                       /root/test/merged/cat
    ...
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.060 MB perf.data ]
    #

  Before:

    File name is wrong (/cat), so decoding fails:

    # perf script --no-itrace --show-mmap-events
             cat     367 [016]   100.491492: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 367/367: [0x55b0ba399000(0x9b000) @ 0x18000 00:02 3419 489959280]: r-xp /cat
    ...
    # perf script --itrace=e | wc -l
    Warning:
    19 instruction trace errors
    19
    #

  After:

    File name is correct (/root/test/merged/cat), so decoding is ok:

    # perf script --no-itrace --show-mmap-events
                 cat     364 [016]    72.153006: PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 364/364: [0x55ce4003d000(0x9b000) @ 0x18000 00:02 3419 3132534314]: r-xp /root/test/merged/cat
    # perf script --itrace=e
    # perf script --itrace=e | wc -l
    0
    #
