[patch 00/19] perfmon2 minimal v2: introduction

[eranian]

The following patches implement a minimal perfmon2 subsystem which provides
access to the hardware performance counters of modern processors.

This series supports ONLY per-thread counting of PMU events (no sampling) for
AMD64 and Intel Core processors in both 32 and 64 bit modes.

This is version 2 of the series following the feedback from LKML. The series
is against 2.6.26-rc6. Compared to previous version, this new series
addresses the comments I received from Aran, Greg KH and others:

    - some small patches were integrated with other bigger patches which
      they closely related to.

    - sysfs code has been largely simplified

Please review.
