On 4S systems with many uncore events being sampled at a high frequency we can see significant overhead from the type 1 accesses: both from the IO port accesses and also from lock contention on the locks protection the IO port. This patch uses the pci_bus_force_mmconfig() interface earlier to force lockless MMCONFIG for the bus the uncore devices are residing on, which significantly lowers overhead. These busses only contain Intel on chip devices which support mmconfig.
