The documentation says we have to enable PEBS before we enable the PMU
proper.

We should never call ->enable with the pmu enabled, and we _can_ have

I overlooked the perf_disable()/perf_enable() calls in
intel_pmu_handle_irq(), (pointed out by Markus) so we should not
explicitly disable_all/enable_all pebs counters in the drain functions,
these are already disabled and enabling them early is confusing.

Calling ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE) on a thottled counter would result
in a double disable, cure this by using x86_pmu_{start,stop} for

Saner PERF_CAPABILITIES support, which also exposes pebs_trap. Use that
latter to make PEBS's use of LBR conditional since a fault-like pebs
should already report the correct IP.
( As of this writing there is no known hardware that implements
!pebs_trap )

Use the LBR to fix up the PEBS IP+1 issue.
As said, PEBS reports the next instruction, here we use the LBR to find
the last branch and from that construct the actual IP. If the IP matches
the LBR-TO, we use LBR-FROM, otherwise we use the LBR-TO address as the
beginning of the last basic block and decode forward.
Once we find a match to the current IP, we use the previous location.
This patch introduces a new ABI element: PERF_RECORD_MISC_EXACT, which
conveys that the reported IP (PERF_SAMPLE_IP) is the exact instruction
that caused the event (barring CPU errata).
The fixup can fail due to various reasons:
1) LBR contains invalid data (quite possible)
2) part of the basic block got paged out
3) the reported IP isn't part of the basic block (see 1)

Implement simple suport Intel Last-Branch-Record, it supports all
hardware that implements FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI, but does not (yet) implement
the LBR config register.
The Intel LBR is a FIFO of From,To addresses describing the last few
branches the hardware took.
This patch does not add perf interface to the LBR, but merely provides an
interface for internal use.

This patch implements support for Intel Precise Event Based Sampling,
which is an alternative counter mode in which the counter triggers a
hardware assist to collect information on events. The hardware assist
takes a trap like snapshot of a subset of the machine registers.
This data is written to the Intel Debug-Store, which can be programmed
with a data threshold at which to raise a PMI.
With the PEBS hardware assist being trap like, the reported IP is always
one instruction after the actual instruction that triggered the event.
This implements a simple PEBS model that always takes a single PEBS event
at a time. This is done so that the interaction with the rest of the
system is as expected (freq adjust, period randomization, lbr,
callchains, etc.).
It adds an ABI element: perf_event_attr::precise, which indicates that we
wish to use this (constrained, but precise) mode.

hw_perf_enable() would enable already enabled events.
This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls
are balanced (like the LBR code does).
What happens is that events that were already running and left in place
would get enabled again.
Avoid this by only enabling new events that match their previous
assignment.

hw_perf_enable() would disable events that were not yet enabled.
This causes problems with code that assumes that ->enable/->disable calls
are balanced (like the LBR code does).
What happens is that we disable newly added counters that match their
previous assignment, even though they are not yet programmed on the
hardware.
Avoid this by only doing the first pass over the existing events.

Constify struct sysfs_ops.
This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

"Moorestown APB system timer driver" suffered from severe whitespace
damage in arch/x86/kernel/apb_timer.c due to using Microsoft Lookout
to send a patch. Fix the whitespace breakage.

The current APB timer code incorrectly registers a static copy of the
clockevent device for the boot CPU. The per cpu clockevent should be
used instead.
This bug was hidden by zero-initialized data; as such it did not get
exposed in testing, but was discovered by code review.
