Peter Zijlstra c68bfeb5ca perf_events, x86: Implement Intel Westmere/Nehalem-EX support

perf_events, x86: Implement Intel Westmere support

The new Intel documentation includes Westmere arch specific
event maps that are significantly different from the Nehalem
ones. Add support for this generation.

Found the CPUID model numbers on wikipedia.

Also ammend some Nehalem constraints, spotted those when looking
for the differences between Nehalem and Westmere.

perf, x86: Enable Nehalem-EX support

According to Intel Software Devel Manual Volume 3B, the
Nehalem-EX PMU is just like regular Nehalem (except for the
uncore support, which is completely different).
