[PATCH 3/3] perf/x86/intel: Add quirk for Goldmont Plus

From: kan . liang
Date: Mon Aug 06 2018 - 13:25:21 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

A ucode patch is needed for Goldmont Plus while counter freezing feature
is enabled. Otherwise, there will be some issues, e.g. PMI flood with
some events.

Add a quirk to check microcode version. Only enable counter freezing
feature on the machine with ucode patch.
