This patch contains the PMU interruption support.
Perfmon2 registers a interrupt handler for the PMU is order:
- to support 64-bit counter emulation
- to support event-based sampling
Typically the PMU interrupt vector is very high priority to ensure
better coverage when sampling.
On PMU interrupt the handler, pfm_overflow_handler(), is invoked and:
- check which counter overflowed
- increment 64-bit software counter accordingly.
- if there the software 64-bit counter overflowed, then a counter overflow
is declared, otherwise execution resumes
- on counter overflow, check if there is a samplinf format used and if so
call its handler routine
- if notification uis requested, then a message is appedend to the context message
queue, any potential waiter is woken up
- switches to a new event set if this is a requested by user (i.e., switch on overflow)
