Add user memory access attribute for kprobe event arguments. If a given 'local variable' is in user-space, User can specify memory access method by '@user' suffix. This is not only for string but also for data structure. If we access a field of data structure in user memory from kernel on some arch, it will fail. e.g. perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority" This will fail to access the "param->sched_priority" because the param is __user pointer. Instead, we can now specify @user suffix for such argument. perf probe -a "sched_setscheduler param->sched_priority@user" Note that kernel memory access with "@user" must always fail on any arch.
