Don't let funny events confuse us, stick to what we know and try to find sensible data again. If we find an unknown event, check we're still u64 aligned, and increment by one u64.

We have a debug check that detects stuck NMIs and returns with the PMU disabled in the global ctrl MSR - but i managed to trigger a situation where this was not enough to deassert the NMI. So clear/reset the full PMU and keep the disable count balanced when exiting from here. This way the box produces a debug warning but stays up and is more debuggable.

This implements interrupt throttling on powerpc. Since we don't have individual count enable/disable or interrupt enable/disable controls per counter, this simply sets the hardware counter to 0, meaning that it will not interrupt again until it has counted 2^31 counts, which will take at least 2^30 cycles assuming a maximum of 2 counts per cycle. Also, we set counter->hw.period_left to the maximum possible value (2^63 - 1), so we won't report overflows for this counter for the forseeable future. The unthrottle operation restores counter->hw.period_left and the hardware counter so that we will once again report a counter overflow after counter->hw.irq_period counts.

Introduce a generic per counter interrupt throttle. This uses the perf_counter_overflow() quick disable to throttle a specific counter when its going too fast when a pmu->unthrottle() method is provided which can undo the quick disable. Power needs to implement both the quick disable and the unthrottle method.

Ingo noticed that cpu counters had 0 context switches, even though there was plenty scheduling on the cpu.
