Subject: [RFC 2/2] perf: Sharing PMU counters across compatible events

This patch tries to enable PMU sharing. To make perf event scheduling
fast, we use special data structures.

An array of "struct perf_event_dup" is added to the cpuctx, to remember
all the duplicated events under this cpuctx. All the events under this
cpuctx has a "dup_id" pointing to its perf_event_dup. Compatible events
under the same cpuctx share the same perf_event_dup. The following figure
shows a simplified version of the data structure.

   cpuctx ->  perf_event_dup -> master
                     ^       -> active_dup (list)
                     |
         perf_event /|
                     |
         perf_event /

Connection among perf_event and perf_event_dup are built with function
rebuild_event_dup_list(cpuctx). This function is only called when events
are added/removed or when a task is scheduled in/out. So it is not on
critical path of perf_rotate_context().

On the critical paths, perf_events are added to/removed from the
active_dup list of the perf_event. The first event added to the list
will be the master event, and the only event that runs pmu->add().
Later events will all refer to this master for read().

   cpuctx ->  perf_event_dup -> master
                     ^       -> active_dup (list)
                     |             ^  ^
         perf_event /|  ----------/   |
                     |                |
         perf_event /   -------------/

Similarly, on event_sched_out path, only the last event calls
pmu->del().

The following functions are introduced to add/remove/move events
in the active_dup list, and update master accordingly:

    event_dup_try_add_follower();
    event_dup_setup_master();
    event_dup_sched_out().
    pdup_adjust_offsets().

Given the data structure above, all these functions have O(1) execution
time. Therefore, this change does not increase the complexity of perf
event scheduling.
