Kim Phillips f14751658a perf/x86/amd/ibs: Handle erratum #420 only on the affected CPU family (10h)
[ Upstream commit e431e79b60 ]

This saves us writing the IBS control MSR twice when disabling the
event.

I searched revision guides for all families since 10h, and did not
find occurrence of erratum #420, nor anything remotely similar:
so we isolate the secondary MSR write to family 10h only.

Also unconditionally update the count mask for IBS Op implementations
that have read & writeable current count (CurCnt) fields in addition
to the MaxCnt field.  These bits were reserved on prior
implementations, and therefore shouldn't have negative impact.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
