The eBPF based opensnoop tool fails to read the file path string passed
to the do_sys_open function. This is because it is a pointer to
userspace address and causes an -EFAULT when read with
probe_kernel_read. This is not an issue when running the tool on x86 but
is an issue on arm64. This patch adds a new bpf function call based
which calls the recently proposed probe_user_read function [1].
Using this function call from opensnoop fixes the issue on arm64.
