[PATCH v1 2/2] x86, perf,cqm: handle CPU hotplug

From: Kanaka Juvva
Date: Thu Jun 18 2015 - 14:48:27 EST


Added lock in event reader function. The cqm_pick_event_reader() function
accesses cqm_cpumask and it is critical section between this and
cqm_stable().

This situation is true when a CPU is hotplugged. Mutex is used to protect
the critical section.
