Sandipan Das 089be16d59 x86/msr: Add PerfCntrGlobal* registers
Add MSR definitions that will be used to enable the new AMD
Performance Monitoring Version 2 (PerfMonV2) features. These
include:

  * Performance Counter Global Control (PerfCntrGlobalCtl)
  * Performance Counter Global Status (PerfCntrGlobalStatus)
  * Performance Counter Global Status Clear (PerfCntrGlobalStatusClr)

The new Performance Counter Global Control and Status MSRs
provide an interface for enabling or disabling multiple
counters at the same time and for testing overflow without
probing the individual registers for each PMC.

The availability of these registers is indicated through the
PerfMonV2 feature bit of CPUID leaf 0x80000022 EAX.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
