Subject: [PATCH v4 09/35] perf evlist: Propagate user CPU maps intersecting
 core PMU maps

The CPU map for a non-core PMU gives a default CPU value for
perf_event_open. For core PMUs the CPU map lists all CPUs the evsel
may be opened on. If there are >1 core PMU, the CPU maps will list the
CPUs for that core PMU, but the user_requested_cpus may contain CPUs
that are invalid for the PMU and cause perf_event_open to fail. To
avoid this, when propagating the CPU map for core PMUs intersect it
with the CPU map of the PMU (the evsel's "own_cpus").

Add comments to __perf_evlist__propagate_maps to explain its somewhat
complex behavior. Fix the related comments for system_wide in struct
perf_evsel.
