Subject: [PATCH 00/13] perf mem/c2c: Add support for AMD

Perf mem and c2c tools are wrappers around perf record with mem load/
store events. IBS tagged load/store sample provides most of the
information needed for these tools. Enable support for these tools on
AMD Zen processors based on IBS Op pmu.

There are some limitations though: Only load/store instructions provide
mem/c2c information. However, IBS does not provide a way to choose a
particular type of instruction to tag. This results in many non-LS
instructions being tagged which appear as N/A. IBS, being an uncore pmu
from kernel point of view[1], does not support per process monitoring.
Thus, perf mem/c2c on AMD are currently supported in per-cpu mode only.

Example:
  $ sudo ./perf mem record -- -c 10000
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 227 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 58.760 MB perf.data (836978 samples) ]

  $ sudo ./perf mem report -F mem,sample,snoop
  Samples: 836K of event 'ibs_op//', Event count (approx.): 8418762
  Memory access                  Samples  Snoop
  N/A                             700620  N/A
  L1 hit                          126675  N/A
  L2 hit                             424  N/A
  L3 hit                             664  HitM
  L3 hit                              10  N/A
  Local RAM hit                        2  N/A
  Remote RAM (1 hop) hit            8558  N/A
  Remote Cache (1 hop) hit             3  N/A
  Remote Cache (1 hop) hit             2  HitM
  Remote Cache (2 hops) hit            10  HitM
  Remote Cache (2 hops) hit             6  N/A
  Uncached hit                         4  N/A
