While setting the processor mode for any sample, perf_get_misc_flags() expects the privilege level to differentiate the userspace and kernel address. On power10 DD1, there is an issue that causes MSR_HV MSR_PR bits of Sampled Instruction Event Register (SIER) not to be set for marked events. Hence add a check to use the address in SIAR (Sampled Instruction Address Register) to identify the privilege level.

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.
