Subject: [PATCH V5 01/14] perf/core: Add PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_PAGE_SIZE

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>

Current perf can report both virtual address and physical address, but
it doesn't report page size. Users have no idea how large the utilized
page is. They cannot promote/demote large pages to optimize memory use.

Add a new sample type for data page size.

Current perf already has a facility to collect data virtual address.
A __weak function, aim to retrieve page size via a given virtual
address, is introduced in the generic code.
Now it always returns 0. All architectures can implement their own
functions later separately. The real page size must be returned. The
function must be IRQ-safe.

A u64 type is claimed for page_size. Because struct perf_sample_data
requires cacheline_aligned.
