An earlier patch allowed enabling PT and LBR at the same
time on Goldmont. However it also allowed enabling BTS and LBR
at the same time, which is still not supported. Fix this by
bypassing the check only for PT.

Vince Weaver reported that perf_fuzzer + KASAN detects that PEBS event
unwinds sometimes do 'weird' things. In particular, we seemed to be
ending up unwinding from random places on the NMI stack.
While it was somewhat expected that the event record BP,SP would not
match the interrupt BP,SP in that the interrupt is strictly later than
the record event, it was overlooked that it could be on an already
overwritten stack.
Therefore, don't copy the recorded BP,SP over the interrupted BP,SP
when we need stack unwinds.
Note that its still possible the unwind doesn't full match the actual
event, as its entirely possible to have done an (I)RET between record
and interrupt, but on average it should still point in the general
direction of where the event came from. Also, it's the best we can do,
considering.
The particular scenario that triggered the bogus NMI stack unwind was
a PEBS event with very short period, upon enabling the event at the
tail of the PMI handler (FREEZE_ON_PMI is not used), it instantly
triggers a record (while still on the NMI stack) which in turn
triggers the next PMI. This then causes back-to-back NMIs and we'll
try and unwind the stack-frame from the last NMI, which obviously is
now overwritten by our own.

The lbr_context logic confused me; it appears to me to try and do the
same thing the pmu::sched_task() callback does now, but limited to
per-task events.
So rip it out. Afaict this should also improve performance, because I
think the current code can end up doing lbr_reset() twice, once from
the pmu::add() and then again from pmu::sched_task(), and MSR writes
(all 3*16 of them) are expensive!!
While thinking through the cases that need the reset it occured to me
the first install of an event in an active context needs to reset the
LBR (who knows what crap is in there), but detecting this case is
somewhat hard.

Currently perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are called from
pmu::{start,stop}(), which has the problem that this can happen from
NMI context, this is making it hard to optimize perf_pmu_sched_task().
Furthermore, we really only need this accounting on pmu::{add,del}(),
so doing it from pmu::{start,stop}() is doing more work than we really
need.
Introduce x86_pmu::{add,del}() and wire up the LBR and PEBS.

In order to allow optimizing perf_pmu_sched_task() we must ensure
perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are no longer called from NMI context; this
means that pmu::{start,stop}() can no longer use them.
Prepare for this by reworking the whole large PEBS setup code.
The current code relied on the cpuc->pebs_enabled state, however since
that reflects the current active state as per pmu::{start,stop}() we
can no longer rely on this.
Introduce two counters: cpuc->n_pebs and cpuc->n_large_pebs which
count the total number of PEBS events and the number of PEBS events
that have FREERUNNING set, resp.. With this we can tell if the current
setup requires a single record interrupt threshold or can use a larger
buffer.
This also improves the code in that it re-enables the large threshold
once the PEBS event that required single record gets removed.

Intel's SDM states that bits 61:62 in MSR_LAST_BRANCH_FROM_x are the
TSX flags for formats with LBR_TSX flags (i.e. LBR_FORMAT_EIP_EFLAGS2).
However, when the CPU has TSX support deactivated, bits 61:62 actually
behave as follows:
- For wrmsr(), bits 61:62 are considered part of the sign extension.
- When capturing branches, the LBR hw will always clear bits 61:62.
regardless of the sign extension.
Therefore, if:
1) LBR has TSX format.
2) CPU has no TSX support enabled.
... then any value passed to wrmsr() must be sign extended to 63 bits
and any value from rdmsr() must be converted to have a sign extension
of 61 bits, ignoring the values at TSX flags.
This bug was masked by the work-around to the Intel's CPU bug:
BJ94. "LBR May Contain Incorrect Information When Using FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI"
in Document Number: 324643-037US.
The aforementioned work-around uses hw flags to filter out all kernel
branches, limiting LBR callstack to user level execution only.
Since user addresses are not sign extended, they do not trigger the wrmsr()
bug in MSR_LAST_BRANCH_FROM_x when saved/restored at context switch.
To verify the hw bug:
$ perf record -b -e cycles sleep 1
$ rdmsr -p 0 0x680
0x1fffffffb0b9b0cc
$ wrmsr -p 0 0x680 0x1fffffffb0b9b0cc
write(): Input/output error
The quirk for LBR_FROM_ MSRs is required before calls to wrmsrl() and
after rdmsrl().
This patch introduces it for wrmsrl()'s done for testing LBR support.
Future patch in series adds the quirk for context switch, that would
be required if LBR callstack is to be enabled for ring 0.

Not all cores prevent using Intel PT and LBRs simultaneously, although

Add perf core PMU support for Intel Goldmont CPU cores:
- The init code is based on Silvermont.
- There is a new cache event list, based on the Silvermont cache event list.
- Goldmont has 32 LBR entries. It also uses new LBRv6 format, which
report the cycle information using upper 16-bit of the LBR_TO.
- It's recommended to use CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.CORE_P + NPEBS for precise cycles.
For details, please refer to the latest SDM058:

This patch adds a Broadwell specific PEBS event constraint table.
Broadwell has a fix for the HT corruption bug erratum HSD29 on
Haswell. Therefore, there is no need to mark events 0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2,
0xd3 has requiring the exclusive mode across both sibling HT threads.
This holds true for regular counting and sampling (see core.c) and
PEBS (ds.c) which we fix in this patch.
In doing so, we relax evnt scheduling for these events, they can now
be programmed on any 4 counters without impacting what is measured on
the sibling thread.

Using PAGE_SIZE buffers makes the WRMSR to PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL in
intel_pmu_enable_all() mysteriously hang on Core2. As a workaround, we
don't do this.
The hard lockup is easily triggered by running 'perf test attr'

small periods.
