Namhyung Kim 4d6d6e0f61 perf annotate-data: Fix percpu pointer check
In check_matching_type(), it checks the type state of the register in a
wrong order.  When it's the percpu pointer, it should check the type for
the pointer, but it checks the CFA bit first and thought it has no type
in the stack slot.  This resulted in no type info.

  -----------------------------------------------------------
  find data type for 0x28(reg1) at hrtimer_reprogram+0x88
  CU for kernel/time/hrtimer.c (die:0x18f219f)
  frame base: cfa=1 fbreg=7
  ...
  add [72] percpu 0x24500 -> reg1 pointer type='struct hrtimer_cpu_base' size=0x240 (die:0x18f6d46)
  bb: [7a - 7e]
  bb: [80 - 86]                        (here)
  bb: [88 - 88]                         vvv
  chk [88] reg1 offset=0x28 ok=1 kind=4 cfa : no type information
  no type information

Here, instruction at 0x72 found reg1 has a (percpu) pointer and got the
correct type.  But when it checks the final result, it wrongly thought
it was stack variable because it checks the cfa bit first.

After changing the order of state check:
  -----------------------------------------------------------
  find data type for 0x28(reg1) at hrtimer_reprogram+0x88
  CU for kernel/time/hrtimer.c (die:0x18f219f)
  frame base: cfa=1 fbreg=7
  ...                                     (here)
                                        vvvvvvvvvv
  chk [88] reg1 offset=0x28 ok=1 kind=4 percpu ptr : Good!
  found by insn track: 0x28(reg1) type-offset=0x28
  final type: type='struct hrtimer_cpu_base' size=0x240 (die:0x18f6d46)

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 reStructuredText 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.
