perf, x86: Add a key to simplify template lookup in Pentium-4 PMU
Currently, we use opcode(Event and Event-Selector) + emask to
look up template in p4_templates.
But cache events (L1-dcache-load-misses, LLC-load-misses, etc)
use the same event(P4_REPLAY_EVENT) to do the counting, ie, they
have the same opcode and emask. So we can not use current lookup
mechanism to find the template for cache events.
This patch introduces a "key", which is the index into
p4_templates. The low 12 bits of CCCR are reserved, so we can
hide the "key" in the low 12 bits of hwc->config.
We extract the key from hwc->config and then quickly find the
template.
