At enable time the counter might still have a ->idx pointing to
a previously occupied location that might now be taken by
another event. Resetting the counter at that location with data
from this event will destroy the other counter's count.

event maps that are significantly different from the Nehalem
ones. Add support for this generation.

This patch improves event scheduling by maximizing the use of PMU
registers regardless of the order in which events are created in a group.

The algorithm takes into account the list of counter constraints for each
event. It assigns events to counters from the most constrained, i.e.,
works on only one counter, to the least constrained, i.e., works on any
counter.

Intel Fixed counter events and the BTS special event are also handled via
this algorithm which is designed to be fairly generic.

The patch also updates the validation of an event to use the scheduling
algorithm. This will cause early failure in perf_event_open().

The 2nd version of this patch follows the model used by PPC, by running
the scheduling algorithm and the actual assignment separately. Actual
assignment takes place in hw_perf_enable() whereas scheduling is
implemented in hw_perf_group_sched_in() and x86_pmu_enable().

in most cases.

But for certain cases such as:

a) user-space breakpoints with pending SIGTRAP signal delivery (as
in the case of ptrace induced breakpoints).

b) exceptions due to other causes than breakpoints

We will continue to process the exception by returning NOTIFY_DONE.

                       |--11.11%-- 0xfffa941bbbc

It turns out the backtrace code has a check for the idle task and the IP
sampling does not. This creates problems when profiling an interrupt
heavy workload (in my case 10Gbit ethernet) since we get no backtraces
for interrupts received while idle (ie most of the workload).

Right now x86 and sh check that current is not NULL, which should never
happen so remove that too.

Idle task's exclusion must be performed from the core code, on top
of perf_event_attr:exclude_idle.

There was a bug in the old period code that caused intel_pmu_enable_all()
or native_write_msr_safe() to show up quite high in the profiles.

In staring at that code it made my head hurt, so I rewrote it in a
hopefully simpler fashion. Its now fully symetric between tick and
overflow driven adjustments and uses less data to boot.

The only complication is that it basically wants to do a u128 division.
The code approximates that in a rather simple truncate until it fits
fashion, taking care to balance the terms while truncating.

This version does not generate that sampling artefact.

Useful, for instance, when adding binaries sent together with a

the tools find it when resolving symbols.

When a task gets scheduled in. We don't touch the cpu bound events
so the priority order becomes:

	cpu pinned, cpu flexible, task pinned, task flexible.

So schedule out cpu flexibles when a new task context gets in
and correctly order the groups to schedule in:

	task pinned, cpu flexible, task flexible.
