Lendacky, Thomas 914123fa39 x86/perf/amd: Resolve race condition when disabling PMC
On AMD processors, the detection of an overflowed counter in the NMI
handler relies on the current value of the counter. So, for example, to
check for overflow on a 48 bit counter, bit 47 is checked to see if it
is 1 (not overflowed) or 0 (overflowed).

There is currently a race condition present when disabling and then
updating the PMC. Increased NMI latency in newer AMD processors makes this
race condition more pronounced. If the counter value has overflowed, it is
possible to update the PMC value before the NMI handler can run. The
updated PMC value is not an overflowed value, so when the perf NMI handler
does run, it will not find an overflowed counter. This may appear as an
unknown NMI resulting in either a panic or a series of messages, depending
on how the kernel is configured.

To eliminate this race condition, the PMC value must be checked after
disabling the counter. Add an AMD function, amd_pmu_disable_all(), that
will wait for the NMI handler to reset any active and overflowed counter
after calling x86_pmu_disable_all().
