A set of perf fixes:
- Correct the permission checks for perf event which send SIGTRAP to a
different process and clean up that code to be more readable.
- Prevent an out of bound MSR access in the x86 perf code which happened
due to an incomplete limiting to the actually available hardware
counters.
- Prevent access to the AMD64_EVENTSEL_HOSTONLY bit when running inside a
guest.
- Handle small core counter re-enabling correctly by issuing an ACK right
before reenabling it to prevent a stale PEBS record being kept around.
perf/x86/intel: Apply mid ACK for small core
A warning as below may be occasionally triggered in an ADL machine when
these conditions occur:
- Two perf record commands run one by one. Both record a PEBS event.
- Both runs on small cores.
- They have different adaptive PEBS configuration (PEBS_DATA_CFG).
[ ] WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 9874 at arch/x86/events/intel/ds.c:1743 setup_pebs_adaptive_sample_data+0x55e/0x5b0
[ ] RIP: 0010:setup_pebs_adaptive_sample_data+0x55e/0x5b0
[ ] Call Trace:

Different from the big core, the small core requires the ACK right
before re-enabling counters in the NMI handler, otherwise a stale PEBS
record may be dumped into the later NMI handler, which trigger the
warning.
Add a new mid_ack flag to track the case. Add all PMI handler bits in
the struct x86_hybrid_pmu to track the bits for different types of
PMUs. Apply mid ACK for the small cores on an Alder Lake machine.
The existing hybrid() macro has a compile error when taking address of
a bit-field variable. Add a new macro hybrid_bit() to get the
bit-field value of a given PMU.
