Subject: [RFC 5/5] x86,perf: Only allow rdpmc if a perf_event is mapped

We currently allow any process to use rdpmc.  This significantly
weakens the protection offered by PR_TSC_DISABLED, and it could be
helpful to users attempting to exploit timing attacks.

Since we can't enable access to individual counters, use a very
coarse heuristic to limit access to rdpmc: allow access only when
a perf_event is mmapped.  This protects seccomp sandboxes.

There is plenty of room to further tighen these restrictions.  For
example, on x86, *all* perf_event mappings set cap_user_rdpmc.  This
should probably be changed to only apply to perf_events that are
accessible using rdpmc.
