perf: Consider OS filter fail

Some PMUs (notably the traditional hardware kind) have boundary issues
with the OS filter. Specifically, it is possible for
perf_event_attr::exclude_kernel=1 events to trigger in-kernel due to
SKID or errata.

This can upset the sigtrap logic some and trigger the WARN.

However, if this invalid sample is the first we must not loose the
SIGTRAP, OTOH if it is the second, it must not override the
pending_addr with a (possibly) invalid one.
