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. Power needs to implement both the quick disable and the unthrottle method.

This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct. The main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU switching in a later patch. This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller, we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes. The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed when the last reference is dropped. A context can have references from its task and the counters on its task. Counters can outlive the task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its task has exited. Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task. In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task. This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct. The task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a context from one task to another. Anything that needed to know which task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task. The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged. We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from __perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from __perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed. This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if the counter has already been removed from the lists. Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to __perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and thus creates a context for itself. This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.

The quirk to irq_period unearthed an unrobustness we had in the hw_counter initialization sequence: we left irq_period at 0, which was then quirked up to 2 ... which then generated a _lot_ of interrupts during 'perf stat' runs, slowed them down and skewed the counter results in general.

Invert the atomic_inc_not_zero() test so that we will indeed detect the first activation. Also rename the global num_counters, since its easy to confuse with x86_pmu.num_counters.

commit db949bba (x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switching) broke ioperm for 32bit because it removed the lazy initialization of io_bitmap_base and did not set it to the real bitmap offset.

According to the gettimeofday(2) manual: If either tv or tz is NULL, the corresponding structure is not set or returned. Since it is legal to give NULL as the tv argument, the code should make sure tv is not NULL before trying to dereference it. This issue manifests itself on x86_64 when vdso=0 is not on the kernel command-line and libc uses the vDSO for gettimeofday() (e.g. glibc >= 2.7). A simple reproducer: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> int main(void) { struct timezone tz; gettimeofday(NULL, &tz); return 0; } See http://bugs.debian.org/466491 for more details.

Standardize on explicitly mentioning '_mask' in fields that are not plain flags but masks. This avoids typos like: if (cpuc->used) (which could easily slip through review unnoticed), while if a typo looks like this: if (cpuc->used_mask) it might get noticed during review.
