I'm an idiot; quilt refresh is needed..

Subject: perf/core: don't find side-band event from all pmus
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

perf_event_aux funciton goes through all pmus and all events in whatever
contexts to find the side-band event to output, which is unnecessary and
expensive.

For example, the brk test case in lkp triggers many mmap operations, at
the time, perf with cycles:pp is also running on the system. As a
result, many perf_event_aux are invoked, and each would search all pmus
and all events. If we enable the uncore support (even when uncore event
are not really used), dozens of uncore pmus will be added into pmus
list, which can significantly decrease brk_test's ops_per_sec. Based on
our test, the ops_per_sec without uncore patch is 2647573, while the
ops_per_sec with uncore patch is only 1768444, which is a 33.2%
reduction.

To get at the per cpu side-band event, this patch put the side-band
events to four categories, which are tracked by 4 per-cpu lists. It only
finds the interested events from masked category.
To get at the per task side-band event, each task context for current task
will be searched. Because we don't want to go update more global state on
context switch.
