[PATCHv3 0/8] perf/x86: Rework msr probe interface

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
following up on [1], [2] and [3], this patchset adds update
attribute groups to pmu, factors out the MSR probe code and
use it in msr,cstate* and rapl PMUs.

The functionality stays the same with one exception:
for msr PMU: the event is not exported if the rdmsr return zero
on event's msr, cstate* and rapl pmu functionality stays.

And also: ;-)
> Somewhere along the line you lost the explanation of _why_ we're doing
> this; namely: virt sucks.

Also available in:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jolsa/perf.git
  perf/msr

Tested on snb and skylake servers.

v3 changes:
  - rebase on latest perf changes for Icelake models

v2 changes:
  - checking zero rdmsr only for rapl PMU events,
    cstate* and msr pmu functionality stays unchanged

thanks,
jirka
