A new kmem_cache method is introduced to allocate the PMU specific data task_ctx_data, which requires the PMU specific code to create a kmem_cache. Currently, the task_ctx_data is only used by the Intel LBR call stack feature, which is introduced since Haswell. The kmem_cache should be only created for Haswell and later platforms. There is no alignment requirement for the existing platforms.

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.
