We have a debug check that detects stuck NMIs and returns with
the PMU disabled in the global ctrl MSR - but i managed to trigger
a situation where this was not enough to deassert the NMI.

So clear/reset the full PMU and keep the disable count balanced when
exiting from here. This way the box produces a debug warning but
stays up and is more debuggable.

This implements interrupt throttling on powerpc.  Since we don't have
individual count enable/disable or interrupt enable/disable controls
per counter, this simply sets the hardware counter to 0, meaning that
it will not interrupt again until it has counted 2^31 counts, which
will take at least 2^30 cycles assuming a maximum of 2 counts per
cycle.  Also, we set counter->hw.period_left to the maximum possible
value (2^63 - 1), so we won't report overflows for this counter for
the forseeable future.

The unthrottle operation restores counter->hw.period_left and the
hardware counter so that we will once again report a counter overflow
after counter->hw.irq_period counts.

Introduce a generic per counter interrupt throttle.

This uses the perf_counter_overflow() quick disable to throttle a specific
counter when its going too fast when a pmu->unthrottle() method is provided
which can undo the quick disable.

Use perf_counter_remove_from_context() to remove counters from
the context.

recent userspace (F11) seems to already include the
linux/unistd.h bits which means we cannot include the version
in the kernel sources due to the header guards being the same.

Ensure we include the kernel version first.

Ensure we're consistent with the context locks.

 context->mutex
   context->lock
     list_{add,del}_counter();

so that either lock is sufficient to stabilize the context.

s/counter->mutex/counter->child_mutex/ and make sure its only
used to protect child_list.

The usage in __perf_counter_exit_task() doesn't appear to be
problematic since ctx->mutex also covers anything related to fd
tear-down.

We call perf_adjust_freq() from perf_counter_task_tick() which
is is called under the rq->lock causing lock recursion.
However, it's no longer required to be called under the
rq->lock, so remove it from under it.

Also, fix up some related comments.
