We found that even enabling a single trace event that will rarely be
triggered can add big overhead to context switch.
(lmbench context switch test)

2.39 2.51 2.35 2.75 2.27 2.81 2.24
The overhead is 6% ~ 11%.
It's because when a trace event is enabled 3 tracepoints (sched_switch,
sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new) will be activated to map pid to cmdname.
We'd like to avoid this overhead, so add a trace option '(no)record-cmd'
to allow to disable cmdline recording.

Gcc generates DW_AT_comp_dir and stores relative source path if building kernel
without O= option. In that case, perf probe --line sometimes doesn't work
without --source option, because it tries to access relative source path.
This adds DW_AT_comp_dir support to perf probe for finding an absolute source
path when no --source option.

To support cache events we have reserved the low 6 bits in
hw_perf_event::config (which is a part of CCCR register
configuration actually).
These bits represent Replay Event mertic enumerated in
enum P4_PEBS_METRIC. The caller should not care about
which exact bits should be set and how -- the caller
just chooses one P4_PEBS_METRIC entity and puts it into
the config. The kernel will track it and set appropriate
additional MSR registers (metrics) when needed.
The reason for this redesign was the PEBS enable bit, which
should not be set until DS (and PEBS sampling) support will
be implemented properly.
TODO
====
- PEBS sampling (note it's tricky and works with _one_ counter only
so for HT machines it will be not that easy to handle both threads)
- tracking of PEBS registers state, a user might need to turn
PEBS off completely (ie no PEBS enable, no UOP_tag) but some
other event may need it, such events clashes and should not
run simultaneously, at moment we just don't support such events
- eventually export user space bits in separate header which will
allow user apps to configure raw events more conveniently.

Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.
The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
such as:
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':
18446744073460670464 cycles <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000
7783773 instructions # 0.000 IPC
465 context-switches
161 page-faults
1172393 branches
20.154242147 seconds time elapsed
This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the
right shift sets the upper bits to zero.

Commit 7a772c492f has two bugs which
made the hotplug problems on my laptop worse instead of better.
First, it did not, in fact, disable the CRT plug interrupt -- it
disabled all the other hotplug interrupts. It seems rather doubtful
that that bit of the patch fixed anything, so let's just remove it.
(If you want to add it back, you probably meant ~CRT_HOTPLUG_INT_EN.)
Second, on at least my GM45, setting CRT_HOTPLUG_ACTIVATION_PERIOD_64
and CRT_HOTPLUG_VOLTAGE_COMPARE_50 (when they were previously unset)
causes a hotplug interrupt about three seconds later. The old code
never restored PORT_HOTPLUG_EN so this could only happen once, but
they new code restores those registers. So just set those bits when
we set up the interrupt in the first place.
