s390/cpum_sf: Dynamically extend the sampling buffer if overflows occur
Improve the sampling buffer allocation and add a function to reallocate and increase the sampling buffer structure. The number of allocated buffer elements (sample-data-blocks) are accounted. You can control the minimum and maximum number these sample-data-blocks through the cpum_sfb_size kernel parameter. The number hardware sample overflows (if any) are also accounted and stored per perf event. During the PMU disable/enable calls, the accumulated overflow counter is analyzed and, if necessary, the sampling buffer is dynamically increased.
