powerpc/perf_counter: Make sure PMU gets enabled properly
This makes sure that we call the platform-specific ppc_md.enable_pmcs function on each CPU before we try to use the PMU on that CPU. If the CPU goes off-line and then on-line, we need to do the enable_pmcs call again, so we use the hw_perf_counter_setup hook to ensure that. It gets called as each CPU comes online, but it isn't called on the CPU that is coming up, so this adds the CPU number as an argument to it (there were no non-empty instances of hw_perf_counter_setup before). This also arranges to set the pmcregs_in_use field of the lppaca (data structure shared with the hypervisor) on each CPU when we are using the PMU and clear it when we are not. This allows the hypervisor to optimize partition switches by not saving/restoring the PMU registers when we aren't using the PMU. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
