Subject: [PATCH v3] perf test x86: address multiplexing in rdpmc test
Counters may be being used for pinned or other events which inhibit the
instruction counter in the test from being scheduled - time_enabled > 0
but time_running == 0. This causes the test to fail with division by 0.
Make time_running and enabled out parameters of mmap_read_self and add a
sleep loop to ensure that the counter is running before computing the
delta.
v3. Cleans up the code by adding a single scale_count boolean. It aligns
the code with the comments in perf_event.h as suggested by Peter
Zijlstra.
v2. Address review feedback from Peter Zijlstra.
