Subject: perf/x86: Store user space frame-pointer value on a sample
Git-commit: 10b1105004fbd81058383537b67df35cc188ab62
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: FATE#326324
Store user space frame-pointer value (BP register) into the perf trace
on a sample for a process so the value becomes available when
unwinding call stacks for functions gaining event samples.
