Subject: [PATCH V5 2/6] perf: attach/detach PMU specific data

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

The LBR call stack data has to be saved/restored during context switch
to fix the shorter LBRs call stacks issue in the  system-wide mode.
Allocate PMU specific data and attach them to the corresponding
task_struct during LBR call stack monitoring.

When a LBR call stack event is accounted, the perf_ctx_data for the
related tasks will be allocated/attached by attach_perf_ctx_data().
When a LBR call stack event is unaccounted, the perf_ctx_data for
related tasks will be detached/freed by detach_perf_ctx_data().

The LBR call stack event could be a per-task event or a system-wide
event.
- For a per-task event, perf only allocates the perf_ctx_data for the
  current task. If the allocation fails, perf will error out.
- For a system-wide event, perf has to allocate the perf_ctx_data for
  both the existing tasks and the upcoming tasks.
  The allocation for the existing tasks is done in perf_event_alloc().
  If any allocation fails, perf will error out.
  The allocation for the new tasks will be done in perf_event_fork().
  A global reader/writer semaphore, global_ctx_data_rwsem, is added to
  address the global race.
- The perf_ctx_data only be freed by the last LBR call stack event.
  The number of the per-task events is tracked by refcount of each task.
  Since the system-wide events impact all tasks, it's not practical to
  go through the whole task list to update the refcount for each
  system-wide event. The number of system-wide events is tracked by a
  global variable global_ctx_data_ref.

Changes since V4:
- Remove the per-task lock and simplify all the attach_* and detach_*
  functions. (Peter)
- Add a global RWSEM to protect the system-wide allocation and free.
  Add a refcount to track the global users. (Peter)
- Modify the perf_event_alloc_task_data() to use the global RWSEM
  (Peter)

Changes since V3:
- Rebase for the Arch LBR
- Use kvcalloc to replace kcalloc (Andi)

Changes since V2:
- Remove global spin lock task_data_sys_wide_events_lock
  Since the global spin lock has been removed, we cannot guarantee
  that the allocation/assignments for existing threads and free are
  serialized.
  To fix it, in V3, we go through the task list when accounting for
  each system-wide event, and assign the perf_ctx_data pointer if needed.
  (In V2, we only do the assignment for the first system-wide event).
  In V3, we also add a breaker in free process for system-wide event.
  If there is new system-wide event accounted, stop the free process
  immediately.
- Add a macro TASK_DATA_SYS_WIDE to indicate the PMU specific data
  is used by system-wide events.
