Drop the callback and task parameters from modify_user_hw_breakpoint().
For now we have no user that need to modify a breakpoint to the point
of changing its handler or its task context.

Kernel breakpoints are created using functions in which we pass
breakpoint parameters as individual variables: address, length
and type.

Although it fits well for x86, this just does not scale across
architectures that may support this api later as these may have
more or different needs. Pass in a perf_event_attr structure
instead because it is meant to evolve as much as possible into
a generic hardware breakpoint parameter structure.

If the new percpu tree is combined with the perf events tree
the following new warning triggers:

 kernel/hw_breakpoint.c: In function 'toggle_bp_task_slot':
 kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:151: warning: 'task_bp_pinned' is used uninitialized in this function

Because it's not valid anymore to define a local variable
and a percpu variable (even if it's file scope local) with
the same name.

Rename the local variable to resolve this.

This simplifies the error handling when we create a breakpoint.
We don't need to check the NULL return value corner case anymore
since we have improved perf_event_create_kernel_counter() to
always return an error code in the failure case.

Perf tools create perf events as disabled in the beginning.
Breakpoints are then considered like ptrace temporary
breakpoints, only meant to reserve a breakpoint slot until we
get all the necessary informations from the user.

In this case, we don't check the address that is breakpointed as
it is NULL in the ptrace case.

But perf tools don't have the same purpose, events are created
disabled to wait for all events to be created before enabling
all of them. We want to check the breakpoint parameters in this
case.

Allow or refuse to build a counter using the breakpoints pmu following
given constraints.

We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables:

- nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters
  in the given cpu

- nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters
  in the given cpu.

- task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu

The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that
have n pinned breakpoints.
Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address
registers:
   task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint
   task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints
   [...]
   task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the
   maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM).

When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu,
we evaluate the following constraints:

== Non-pinned counter ==

- If attached to a single cpu, check:

    (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu)
         + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM

       -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it
          means there is already a free slot for them.
          Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task
          breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu
          breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers.

- If attached to every cpus, check:

    (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *))
           + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM

       -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per
          cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the
          per tasks breakpoints.

== Pinned counter ==

- If attached to a single cpu, check:

       ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1)
            + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu)
            + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM

       -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any,
          must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will
          never be be fed).

- If attached to every cpus, check:

      ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1)
           + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *))
           + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM

Changes in v2:

- Counter -> event rename

Changes in v5:

- Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released
  it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that)

Changes in v6:

- Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context
  pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context
  non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically
  but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled
  before we can apply every possible pinned counters. So consider
  non-pinned counters as pinned for now.

This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of
perf events instances.

Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the
register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc..

The new layering is now made as follows:

       ptrace       kgdb      ftrace   perf syscall
          \          |          /         /
           \         |         /         /
                                        /
            Core breakpoint API        /
                                      /
                     |               /
                     |              /

              Breakpoints perf events

                     |
                     |

               Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling
                                    (Part of core breakpoint API)
                     |
                     |

             Hardware debug registers

Reasons of this rewrite:

- Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling,
  implying an easier arch integration
- More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible
  events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...)

Impact:

- New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters
- Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per
  thread breakpoints references.

Todo (in the order):

- Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement
  perf_bpcounter_event())
- Support from perf tools

Changes in v2:

- Follow the perf "event " rename
- The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events
  weren't released when a task ended)
- Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in
  perf_event_attr.
- Separate core and arch specific headers, drop
  asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h
- Use new generic len/type for breakpoint
- Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch

Changes in v3:

- Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api
  changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers
  to the host.

Changes in v4:

- Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a
  module
- Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit:
  TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running
  breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be
  set when the guest used debug registers.
  (Waiting for a reliable optimization)

Changes in v5:

- Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to
  linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch
- Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest
  to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active
  breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up
  address registers.
- Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild
- Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c

Changes in v6:

- Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build
  error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST

This patch introduces the generic Hardware Breakpoint interfaces for both user
and kernel space requests.
This core Api handles the hardware breakpoints through new helpers. It
handles the user-space breakpoints and kernel breakpoints in front of
arch implementation.

One can choose kernel wide breakpoints using the following helpers
and passing them a generic struct hw_breakpoint:

- register_kernel_hw_breakpoint()
- unregister_kernel_hw_breakpoint()
- modify_kernel_hw_breakpoint()

On the other side, you can choose per task breakpoints.

- register_user_hw_breakpoint()
- unregister_user_hw_breakpoint()
- modify_user_hw_breakpoint()
