Enable capture of interrupted machine state for each sample.
Registers to sample are passed per event in the sample_regs_intr bitmask.
To sample interrupt machine state, the PERF_SAMPLE_INTR_REGS must be passed in
sample_type.
The list of available registers is arch dependent and provided by asm/perf_regs.h
Registers are laid out as u64 in the order of the bit order of sample_intr_regs.
This patch also adds a new ABI version PERF_ATTR_SIZE_VER4 because we extend
the perf_event_attr struct with a new u64 field.

Disallow setting inv/cmask/etc. flags for all PEBS events
on these CPUs, except for the UOPS_RETIRED.* events on Nehalem/Westmere,
which are needed for cycles:p. This avoids an undefined situation
strongly discouraged by the Intle SDM. The PLD_* events were already
covered. This follows the earlier changes for Sandy Bridge and alter.

My earlier commit:
86a04461a9 ("perf/x86: Revamp PEBS event selection")
made nearly all PEBS on Sandy/IvyBridge/Haswell to reject non zero flags.
However this wasn't done for the INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST event
because no suitable macro existed. Now that we have
INTEL_FLAGS_UEVENT_CONSTRAINT enforce zero flags for
INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST too.

There were several reports that on some systems writing the SBOX0 PMU
initialization MSR would #GP at boot. This did not happen on all
systems -- my two test systems booted fine.
Writing the three initialization bits bit-by-bit seems to avoid the
problem. So add a special callback to do just that.
This replaces an earlier patch that disabled the SBOX.

When a CPU hotplugged out, we call perf_remove_from_context() (via
perf_event_exit_cpu()) to rip each CPU-bound event out of its PMU's cpu
context, but leave siblings grouped together. Freeing of these events is
left to the mercy of the usual refcounting.
When a CPU-bound event's refcount drops to zero we cross-call to
__perf_remove_from_context() to clean it up, detaching grouped siblings.
This works when the relevant CPU is online, but will fail if the CPU is
currently offline, and we won't detach the event from its siblings
before freeing the event, leaving the sibling list corrupt. If the
sibling list is later walked (e.g. because the CPU cam online again
before a remaining sibling's refcount drops to zero), we will walk the
now corrupted siblings list, potentially dereferencing garbage values.
Given that the events should never be scheduled again (as we removed
them from their context), we can simply detatch siblings when the CPU
goes down in the first place. If the CPU comes back online, the
redundant call to __perf_remove_from_context() is safe.

There's a problem on finding correct kernel symbols when perf report
runs on a different kernel. Although a part of the problem was solved
by the prior commit 0a7e6d1b68 ("perf tools: Check recorded kernel
version when finding vmlinux"), there's a remaining problem still.
When perf records samples, it synthesizes the kernel map using
machine__mmap_name() and ref_reloc_sym like "[kernel.kallsyms]_text".
You can easily see it using 'perf report -D' command.
After finishing record, it goes through the recorded events to find
maps/dsos actually used. And then record build-id info of them.
During this process, it needs to load symbols in a dso and it'd call
dso__load_vmlinux_path() since the default value of the symbol_conf.
try_vmlinux_path is true. However it changes dso->long_name to a real
path of the vmlinux file (e.g. /lib/modules/3.16.4/build/vmlinux) if one
is running on a custom kernel.
It resulted in that perf report reads the build-id of the vmlinux, but
cannot use it since it only knows about the [kernel.kallsyms] map. It
then falls back to possible vmlinux paths by using the recorded kernel
version (in case of a recent version) or a running kernel silently.
Even with the recent tools, this still has a possibility of breaking
the result. As the build directory is a symbolic link, if one built a
new kernel in the same directory with different source/config, the old
link to vmlinux will point the new file. So it's absolutely needed to
use build-id when finding a kernel image.
In this patch, it's now changed to try to search a kernel dso in the
existing dso list which was constructed during build-id table parsing
so it'll always have a build-id. If not found, search "[kernel.kallsyms]".

When perf record finishes a session, it pre-processes samples in order
to write build-id info from DSOs that had samples.
During this process it'll call map__load() for the kernel map, and it
ends up calling dso__load_vmlinux_path() which replaces dso->long_name.
But this function checks kernel's build-id before searching vmlinux path
so it'll end up with a cryptic name, the pathname for the entry in the
~/.debug cache, which can be confusing to users.
This patch adds a flag to skip the build-id check during record, so
that it'll have the original vmlinux path for the kernel dso->long_name,
not the entry in the ~/.debug cache.
