perf stat: Add support to measure SMI cost
Implementing a new --smi-cost mode in perf stat to measure SMI cost.
During the measurement, the /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi will be set.
The measurement can be done with one counter (unhalted core cycles), and
two free running MSR counters (IA32_APERF and SMI_COUNT).
In practice, the percentages of SMI core cycles should be more useful
than absolute value. So the output will be the percentage of SMI core
cycles and SMI#. metric_only will be set by default.
SMI cycles% = (aperf - unhalted core cycles) / aperf
Here is an example output.
Performance counter stats for 'sudo echo ':
SMI cycles% SMI#
0.1% 1
0.010858678 seconds time elapsed
Users who wants to get the actual value can apply additional
--no-metric-only.

+Measure SMI cost if msr/aperf/ and msr/smi/ events are supported.
+
+During the measurement, the /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi will be set to
+freeze core counters on SMI.
+The aperf counter will not be effected by the setting.
+The cost of SMI can be measured by (aperf - unhalted core cycles).
+
+In practice, the percentages of SMI cycles is very useful for performance
+oriented analysis. --metric_only will be applied by default.
+The output is SMI cycles%, equals to (aperf - unhalted core cycles) / aperf
+
+Users who wants to get the actual value can apply --no-metric-only.
