Adrian Hunter 537412c547 perf/x86/intel/pt: Relax address filter validation
commit c243cecb58e3905baeace8827201c14df8481e2a upstream.

The requirement for 64-bit address filters is that they are canonical
addresses. In other respects any address range is allowed which would
include user space addresses.

That can be useful for tracing virtual machine guests because address
filtering can be used to advantage in place of current privilege level
(CPL) filtering.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
