perf: CXL Performance Monitoring Unit driver


CXL rev 3.0 introduces a standard performance monitoring hardware
block to CXL. Instances are discovered using CXL Register Locator DVSEC
entries. Each CXL component may have multiple PMUs.

This initial driver supports a subset of types of counter.
It supports counters that are either fixed or configurable, but requires
that they support the ability to freeze and write value whilst frozen.

Development done with QEMU model which will be posted shortly.

Example:

$ perf stat -a -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpcur/ -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpdata/ -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/clock_ticks/ sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

96,757,023,244,321      cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpcur/
96,757,023,244,365      cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpdata/
193,514,046,488,653      cxl_pmu_mem0.0/clock_ticks/
