[PATCH 2/3] perf/x86: Tighten up the kernel_ip() check

[Alexander Shishkin]

The kernel_ip() filter is used mostly by the DS/LBR code to look at the
branch addresses, but Intel PT also uses it to validate the address
filter offsets for kernel addresses, for which it is not sufficient:
supplying something in bits 64:48 that's not a sign extension of the lower
address bits (like 0xf00d000000000000) throws a #GP.

In the interest of improving everybody's kernel address checks, this
patch adds address validation to kernel_ip().
