Subject: [PATCH 5/9] perf pmu: Use relative path for sysfs scan

The PMU information is in the kernel sysfs so it needs to scan the
directory to get the whole information like event aliases, formats
and so on.  During the traversal, it opens a lot of files and
directories like below:

  dir = opendir("/sys/bus/event_source/devices");
  while (dentry = readdir(dir)) {
    char buf[PATH_MAX];

    snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%s/%s",
             "/sys/bus/event_source/devices", dentry->d_name);
    fd = open(buf, O_RDONLY);
    ...
  }

But this is not good since it needs to copy the string to build the
absolute pathname, and it makes redundant pathname walk (from the /sys)
unnecessarily.  We can use openat(2) to open the file in the given
directory.  While it's not a problem ususally, it can be a problem
when the kernel has contentions on the sysfs.

Add a couple of new helper to return the file descriptor of PMU
directory so that it can use it with relative paths.

 * perf_pmu__event_source_devices_fd()
   - returns a fd for the PMU root ("/sys/bus/event_source/devices")

 * perf_pmu__pathname_fd()
   - returns a fd for "<pmu>/<file>" under the PMU root

Now the above code can be converted something like below:

  dirfd = perf_pmu__event_source_devices_fd();
  dir = fdopendir(dirfd);
  while (dentry = readdir(dir)) {
    fd = openat(dirfd, dentry->d_name, O_RDONLY);
    ...
  }
