There is vendor specific code in generic x86 code, and there is vendor
specific code that could be generic. This patch introduces
x86_pmu_enable_counter() for x86 generic code. Fixed counter code for
Intel is moved to Intel only functions. In the end, checks and calls
via function pointers were reduced to the necessary. Also, the
internal function i/f changed.

The type of counter index is sometimes implemented as unsigned

cpuc->active will now be used to indicate an enabled counter which
implies also valid pointers of cpuc->counters[]. In contrast,
cpuc->used only locks the counter, but it can be still uninitialized.

This patch renames struct pmc_x86_ops into struct x86_pmu. It
introduces a structure to describe an x86 model specific pmu
(performance monitoring unit). It may contain ops and data. The new
name of the structure fits better, is shorter, and thus better to
handle. Where it was appropriate, names of function and variable have
been changed too.

The earlier patch to change the poller to a separate function subtly
broke the boot logging logic. This could lead to machine checks
getting logged at boot even when disabled or defaulting to off

The polling timer while running per CPU still uses a global next_interval
variable, which lead to some CPUs either polling too fast or too slow.
This was not a serious problem because all errors get picked up eventually,
but it's still better to avoid it. Turn next_interval into a per cpu variable.

Take already available policy->cpuinfo.max_freq and get rid of acpi-cpufreq
specific max_freq variable.
This implies that P0 is always the highest frequency which should always
be true as ACPI spec says:

Fix for a regression that was introduced by earlier commit
18b2646fe3babeb40b34a0c1751e0bf5adfdc64c on Mon Apr 6 11:26:08 2009
Regression resulted in the below error happened on systems with
software coordination where per_cpu acpi data will not be initiated for
secondary CPUs in a P-state domain.

It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.
My bad.
'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):
(a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.
(b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
call on that CPU.
Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

We ended up incorrectly using '&cur' instead of '&readin' in the
work_on_cpu() -> smp_call_function_single() transformation in commit
01599fca6758d2cd133e78f87426fc851c9ea725 ("cpufreq: use
smp_call_function_[single|many]() in acpi-cpufreq.c").
Andrew explains:
"OK, the acpi tree went and had conflicting changes merged into it after
I'd written the patch and it appears that I incorrectly reverted part
of 18b2646fe3babeb40b34a0c1751e0bf5adfdc64c while fixing the resulting
rejects.
Switching it to `readin' looks correct."

work_on_cpu(): rewrite it to create a kernel thread on demand
It seems that the kernel calls these acpi-cpufreq functions at a quite
high frequency.
Valdis Kletnieks also reports that this causes 70-90 forks per second on

It seems by mistake these files got execute permissions so removing it.

Paul suggested we allow for data addresses to be recorded along with
the traditional IPs as power can provide these.
For now, only the software pagefault events provide data addresses,
but in the future power might as well for some events.
x86 doesn't seem capable of providing this atm.

and 'bjorn.notify' into release

Add support for Always Running APIC timer, CPUID_0x6_EAX_Bit2.
This bit means the APIC timer continues to run even when CPU is
in deep C-states.
The advantage is that we can use LAPIC timer on these CPUs
always, and there is no need for "slow to read and program"
external timers (HPET/PIT) and the timer broadcast logic
and related code in C-state entry and exit.

Prepare for more generic overflow handling. The new perf_counter_overflow()
method will handle the generic bits of the counter overflow, and can return
a !0 return value, in which case the counter should be (soft) disabled, so
that it won't count until it's properly disabled.
XXX: do powerpc and swcounter

Implement set_perf_counter_pending() with a self-IPI so that it will
run ASAP in a usable context.
For now use a second IRQ vector, because the primary vector pokes
the apic in funny ways that seem to confuse things.
