Subject[RFC PATCH V3 4/7] perf/x86/lbr: Fix shorter LBRs call stacks for system-wide mode
Date
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>

In system-wide mode, LBR callstacks are shorter in comparison to
per-process mode.

LBR MSRs are reset during context switch in system-wide mode. For LBR
call stack, the LBRs should be always saved/restored during context
switch.

Use the space in task_struct to save/restore the LBR call stack data.

For system-wide event, it's unnecessagy to update the
lbr_callstack_users for each threads. Add a variable in x86_pmu to
indicate if the system-wide event is active.

Fixes: 76cb2c617f12 ("perf/x86/intel: Save/restore LBR stack during context switch")
