4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> commit ec1891afae740be581ecf5abc8bda74c4549203f upstream. Some architectures have a single address space for kernel and user addresses, which makes it possible to determine if an address is in kernel space or user space. Some don't, e.g.: sparc. Cache that info in perf_env so that, for instance, code needing to fallback failed symbol lookups at the kernel space in single address space arches can lookup at userspace.
