The following commit:
75925e1ad7 ("perf/x86: Optimize stack walk user accesses")
... switched from copy_from_user_nmi() to __copy_from_user_nmi() with a manual
access_ok() check.
Unfortunately, copy_from_user_nmi() does an explicit check against TASK_SIZE,
whereas the access_ok() uses whatever the current address limit of the task is.
We are getting NMIs when __probe_kernel_read() has switched to KERNEL_DS, and
then see vmalloc faults when we access what looks like pointers into vmalloc
space:

Fix this by moving the valid_user_frame() check to before the uaccess
that loads the return address and the pointer to the next frame.
