commit 46b1b577229a091b137831becaa0fae8690ee15a upstream.

> arch/x86/events/intel/cstate.c:307 cstate_pmu_event_init() warn: potential spectre issue 'pkg_msr' (local cap)
> arch/x86/events/intel/core.c:337 intel_pmu_event_map() warn: potential spectre issue 'intel_perfmon_event_map'

> arch/x86/events/amd/core.c:132 amd_pmu_event_map() warn: potential spectre issue 'amd_perfmon_event_map'

Userspace controls @attr, sanitize @attr->config before passing it on
to x86_pmu::event_map().
