sparc64: Ensure perf can access user stacks

When an interrupt (such as a perf counter interrupt) is delivered
while executing in user space, the trap entry code puts ASI_AIUS in
%asi so that copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() will access the
correct memory. But if a perf counter interrupt is delivered while the
cpu is already executing in kernel space, then the trap entry code
will put ASI_P in %asi, and this will prevent copy_from_user() from
reading any useful stack data in either of the perf_callchain_user_X
functions, and thus no user callgraph data will be collected for this
sample period. An additional problem is that a fault is guaranteed
to occur, and though it will be silently covered up, it wastes time
and could perturb state.

In perf_callchain_user(), we ensure that %asi contains ASI_AIUS
because we know for a fact that the subsequent calls to
copy_from_user() are intended to read the user's stack.
