Mathieu Poirier 857302055f perf/core: Fix crash when using HW tracing kernel filters 
commit 7f635ff187 upstream

In function perf_event_parse_addr_filter(), the path::dentry of each struct
perf_addr_filter is left unassigned (as it should be) when the pattern
being parsed is related to kernel space.  But in function
perf_addr_filter_match() the same dentries are given to d_inode() where
the value is not expected to be NULL, resulting in the following splat:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000058
  pc : perf_event_mmap+0x2fc/0x5a0
  lr : perf_event_mmap+0x2c8/0x5a0
  Process uname (pid: 2860, stack limit = 0x000000001cbcca37)
  Call trace:
   perf_event_mmap+0x2fc/0x5a0
   mmap_region+0x124/0x570
   do_mmap+0x344/0x4f8

   sys_execve+0x3c/0x50
   el0_svc_naked+0x30/0x34

This patch is fixing the problem by introducing a new check in function
perf_addr_filter_match() to see if the filter's dentry is NULL.
