perf buildid: Fix cpumode of buildid event
There is a nasty confusion that, for kernel module, dso->kernel is not necessary to be DSO_TYPE_KERNEL or DSO_TYPE_GUEST_KERNEL. These two enums are for vmlinux. See thread [1]. We tried to fix this part but it is costy. Code machine__write_buildid_table() is another unfortunate function fall into this trap that, when issuing buildid event for a kernel module, cpumode it gives to the event is PERF_RECORD_MISC_USER, not PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL. However, even with this bug, most of the time it doesn't causes real problem. I find this issue when trying to use a perf before commit 3d39ac53 ("perf machine: No need to have two DSOs lists") to parse a perf.data generated by newest perf.
