commit 20279420ae3a8ef4c5d9fedc360a2c37a1dbdf1b upstream.

Thomas Richter reported:

> Test case 66 'Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames'
> is broken on s390, but works on x86. The test case fails with:

> [root@m35lp76 perf]# perf test -F 66
> 66: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames
> :Recording open file:

> [root@m35lp76 perf]#

The root cause was the print_fmt of the kprobe event that referenced the
"ustring"

> Setting up the kprobe event using perf command:
>
> # ./perf probe "vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:ustring"
>
> generates this format file:
> [root@m35lp76 perf]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe/\
> vfs_getname/format
> name: vfs_getname
> ID: 1172
> format:
> field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
> field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
> field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
> field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
>
> field:unsigned long __probe_ip; offset:8; size:8; signed:0;
> field:__data_loc char[] pathname; offset:16; size:4; signed:1;
>
> print fmt: "(%lx) pathname=\"%s\"", REC->__probe_ip, REC->pathname

Instead of using "__get_str(pathname)" it referenced it directly.
