This also fixes asserts on removal of the module for the mpc74xx.
The PowerPC 970 processors have two different types of events: direct events
and indirect events. Thus far only direct events are supported. I included
some documentation in the driver on how indirect events work, but support is
for the future.

The SDM (June 2013) tables on these are rather confusing. Yes, they
assign the same name (BR_MISP_RETIRED.ALL_BRANCHES) to two codes
(C5H/00H and C5H/04H.) The latter however is the PEBS version.
So, to make it easier to see the difference - and yes, we can use
both without having to actually enable the PEBS specific bits! -
just rename the PEBS one to _PS so there's no clashing.
Tested:
* Sandy bridge
bridge Xeon.
Summary: These are PEBS events but they're also available as normal
counter/sample events. The source table (Table 19-2) lists the
base versions (LOAD, STLB_MISS, SPLIT, ALL) but it says they must
be qualified with other values. This particular commit fleshes
out those umask values.
Source:
* Linux; SDM June 2013, Volume 3B, Table 19-2 and 18-21.
Tested:
* Sandy Bridge (non-Xeon)
* Add in MEM_LOAD_UOPS_LLC_HIT_RETIRED for both sandy bridge and sandy
bridge Xeon. Right now it only is enabled for Sandy Bridge.
* D2/0F is actually a combination rather than a separate counter, so
just flip that on for the CPU types that support it.
There's an errata for using this on SB Xeon hardware - I've documented
it in kern/181346.
Tested:
* Sandy Bridge

those of some non-architectural core events. This is not a problem in the
general case as long as there's an 1:1 mapping between the two, but there
are few exceptions. For example, 3CH_01H on Nehalem/Westmere represents
both unhalted-reference-cycles and CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P.
CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P on the aforementioned architectures does not measure
reference (i.e. bus) but TSC, so there's the need to disambiguate.
In order to avoid the namespace collision rename all the architectural
events in a way they cannot be ambigous and refactor the architectural
events handling function to reflect this change.
While here, per Jim Harris request, rename
iap_architectural_event_is_unsupported() to iap_event_is_architectural().

New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).
Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
instructions.

In these CPUs, the actual numbers, kinds and widths of PMCs present
need to queried at run time. Support for specific "architectural"
events also needs to be queried at run time.
Model 0xE CPUs support programmable PMCs, subsequent CPUs
additionally support "fixed-function" counters.
- Use event names that are close to vendor documentation, taking in
account that:
- events with identical semantics on two or more CPUs in this family
can have differing names in vendor documentation,
- identical vendor event names may map to differing events across
CPUs,
- each type of CPU supports a different subset of measurable
events.
Fixed-function and programmable counters both use the same vendor
names for events. The use of a class name prefix ("iaf-" or
"iap-" respectively) permits these to be distinguished.
- In libpmc, refactor pmc_name_of_event() into a public interface
and an internal helper function, for use by log handling code.
- Minor code tweaks: staticize a global, freshen a few comments.
