[PATCH 6/9] sparc/perf: correctly check for kthreads

[Mark Rutland]

The sparc perf_callchain_user() functions looks at current->mm,
apparently to determine whether the thread is a kthread without any
valid user context.

In general, a non-NULL current->mm doesn't imply that current is a
kthread, as kthreads can install an mm via use_mm(), and so it's
preferable to use is_kthread() to determine whether a thread is a
kthread.

For consistency, let's use is_kthread() here.
