This little series tightens up rdpmc permissions.  With it applied,
rdpmc can only be used if a perf_event is actually mmapped.  For now,
this is only really useful for seccomp.

At some point this could be further tightened up to only allow rdpmc
if an actual self-monitoring perf event that is compatible with
rdpmc is mapped.

This should add <50ns to context switches between rdpmc-capable and
rdpmc-non-capable mms.  I suspect that this is well under 10%
overhead, given that perf already adds some context switch latency.

I think that patches 1-3 are a good idea regardless of any rdpmc changes.

AMD Uncore userspace rdpmc is broken by these patches (cap_user_rdpmc
will be zero), but it was broken anyway.

Changes from v1 (aka RFC):
 - Rebased on top of the KVM CR4 fix.  This applies to a very recent -linus.
 - Renamed the cr4 helpers (Peter, Borislav)
 - Fixed buggy cr4 helpers (Hilf)
 - Improved lots of comments (everyone)
 - Renamed read_cr4 and write_cr4 to make sure I didn't miss anything.
   (NB: This will introduce conflicts with Andi's FSGSBASE work.  This is
    a good thing.)

Andy Lutomirski (7):
  x86: Clean up cr4 manipulation
  x86: Store a per-cpu shadow copy of CR4
  x86: Add a comment clarifying LDT context switching
  perf: Add pmu callbacks to track event mapping and unmapping
  perf: Pass the event to arch_perf_update_userpage
  x86, perf: Only allow rdpmc if a perf_event is mapped
  x86, perf: Add /sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc=2 to allow rdpmc for all tasks

Peter Zijlstra (1):
  perf: Clean up pmu::event_idx
