Subject: [PATCH 04/32] perf/x86/intel/cqm: make read of RMIDs per package (Temporal)

The previous version of Intel's CQM introduced pmu::count as a replacement
for reading CQM events. This was done to avoid using an IPI to read the
CQM occupancy event when reading events attached to a thread.
Using pmu->count in place of pmu->read is inconsistent with the usage by
other PMUs and introduces several problems such as:
  1) pmu::read for thread events returns bogus values when called from
  interrupts disabled contexts.
  2) perf_event_count(), behavior depends on whether interruptions are
  enabled or not.
  3) perf_event_count() will always read a fresh value from the PMU, which
  is inconsistent with the behavior of other events.
  4) perf_event_count() will perform slow MSR read and writes and IPIs.

This patches removes pmu::count from CQM and makes pmu::read always
read from the local socket (package). Future patches will add a mechanism
to add the event count from other packages.

This patch also removes the unused field rmid_usecnt from intel_pqr_state.
