powerpc/64s/perf: perf interrupt does not have to get_user_pages to access user memory
read_user_stack_slow that walks user address translation by hand is only required on hash, because a hash fault can not be serviced from "NMI" context (to avoid re-entering the hash code) so the user stack can be mapped into Linux page tables but not accessible by the CPU. Radix MMU mode does not have this restriction. A page fault failure would indicate the page is not accessible via get_user_pages either, so avoid this on radix.
