    perf: Rework the PMU methods · a4eaf7f1
    Peter Zijlstra 提交于
    Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
    pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.
    
    The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
    keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
    the generic stopped state.
    
    This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
    code paths (like IRQ handlers).
    
    It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
    a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).
    
    The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
    how the architecture implemented the throttled state:
    
     1) We disable the counter:
        a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
        b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state
    
     2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events
