Currently, we cannot parse build_id in nmi context because of up_read(¤t->mm->mmap_sem), this makes stackmap with build_id less useful. This patch enables parsing build_id in nmi by putting the up_read() call in irq_work. To avoid memory allocation in nmi context, we use per cpu variable for the irq_work. As a result, only one irq_work per cpu is allowed. If the irq_work is in-use, we fallback to only report ips.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
