perf/x86/intel: Support CPUID 10.ECX to disable fixed counters
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.12-rc1 commit 32451614 category: feature feature: SPR PMU core event enhancement bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/intel-kernel/issues/I596BF Intel-SIG: commit 32451614 ("perf/x86/intel: Support CPUID 10.ECX to disable fixed counters") ------------------------------------- With Architectural Performance Monitoring Version 5, CPUID 10.ECX cpu leaf indicates the fixed counter enumeration. This extends the previous count to a bitmap which allows disabling even lower fixed counters. It could be used by a Hypervisor. The existing intel_ctrl variable is used to remember the bitmask of the counters. All code that reads all counters is fixed to check this extra bitmask.
