perf vendor events intel: Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint

Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint to Page_Walks_Utilization for Sky Lake
and Cascade Lake.

Committer testing:

On a Lenovo T480S, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U Kaby Lake, that looking at x86's
mapfile.csv file is a:

$ grep -w skylake tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
GenuineIntel-6-[4589]E,v24,skylake,core
$

So uses the constraint added in this patch in this file:

tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/skylake/skl-metrics.json

Before:

# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

<not counted> itlb_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> dtlb_load_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> dtlb_store_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> ept.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> cycles (0.00%)

2.001750514 seconds time elapsed

Some events weren't counted. Try disabling the NMI watchdog:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
perf stat ...
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
The events in group usually have to be from the same PMU. Try reorganizing the group.
#

After:

# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2
Splitting metric group Page_Walks_Utilization into standalone metrics.
Try disabling the NMI watchdog to comply NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
perf stat ...
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
,
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

36,883,102 itlb_misses.walk_pending # 0.1 Page_Walks_Utilization (79.99%)
123,104,146 dtlb_load_misses.walk_pending (80.02%)
13,720,795 dtlb_store_misses.walk_pending (79.99%)
0 ept.walk_pending (79.99%)
1,519,948,400 cycles (80.01%)

2.002170780 seconds time elapsed

#

Before and after, if we disable the nmi_watchdog we get:

# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

33,721,658 itlb_misses.walk_pending # 0.1 Page_Walks_Utilization
84,070,996 dtlb_load_misses.walk_pending
9,816,071 dtlb_store_misses.walk_pending
0 ept.walk_pending
704,920,899 cycles

2.002331670 seconds time elapsed

More information about the metric expressions:

# perf stat -v -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8E-A
