Subject: [PATCH 18/32] perf, x86: Support for printing PMU state on spurious PMIs v3

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

I had some problems with spurious PMIs, so print the PMU state
on a spurious one. This will not interact well with other NMI users.
Disabled by default, has to be explicitely enabled through sysfs.

Optional, but useful for debugging.

v2: Move to /sys/devices/cpu
v3: Print in more cases
