      perf/core: Optimize perf_init_event() for TYPE_SOFTWARE · d44f821b
      Liang, Kan authored
      Andi reported that he was hitting the linear search in
      perf_init_event() a lot. Now that all !TYPE_SOFTWARE events should hit
      the IDR, make sure the TYPE_SOFTWARE events are at the head of the
      list such that we'll quickly find the right PMU (provided a valid
      event was given).

      Andi reported that he was hitting the linear search in
      perf_init_event() a lot. Make more agressive use of the IDR lookup to
      avoid hitting the linear search.
      
      With exception of PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (which relies on a hideous hack),
      we can put everything in the IDR. On top of that, we can alias
      TYPE_HARDWARE and TYPE_HW_CACHE to TYPE_RAW on the lookup side.
      
      This greatly reduces the chances of hitting the linear search.
