    perf: Factor __output_copy to be usable with specific copy function · 91d7753a
    Frederic Weisbecker authored
    
    
    Adding a generic way to use __output_copy function with specific copy
    function via DEFINE_PERF_OUTPUT_COPY macro.
    
    Using this to add new __output_copy_user function, that provides output
    copy from user pointers. For x86 the copy_from_user_nmi function is used
    and __copy_from_user_inatomic for the rest of the architectures.
    
    This new function will be used in user stack dump on sample, coming in
    next patches.
