perf/core: Force USER_DS when recording user stack data
Perf can record user stack data in response to a synchronous request, such as a tracepoint firing. If this happens under set_fs(KERNEL_DS), then we end up reading user stack data using __copy_from_user_inatomic() under set_fs(KERNEL_DS). I think this conflicts with the intention of using set_fs(KERNEL_DS). And it is explicitly forbidden by hardware on ARM64 when both CONFIG_ARM64_UAO and CONFIG_ARM64_PAN are used. So fix this by forcing USER_DS when recording user stack data.
