In follow-on patches the setup_ctrs() functions will need data that
describes the model. This patch extends the function argument list to
pass a pointer of the model to these function.

The use of the macros has no effect. The oprofilefs has to be extended
first to support these features.

The macros CTRL_READ() and CTRL_WRITE() make the code hard to read and
maintain. This patch replaces them by rdmsr()/wrmsr() functions and
simplifies the code.

There are duplicate macro implementations in model specific code. This
patch moves all common macros to op_x86_model.h.

This patch creates the new functions
oprofile_write_reserve()
oprofile_add_data()
oprofile_write_commit()
and makes them part of the oprofile api.

The new ring buffer implementation allows the storage of samples with
different size. This patch implements the usage of the new sample
format to store ibs samples in the cpu buffer. Until now, writing to
the cpu buffer could lead to incomplete sampling sequences since IBS
samples were transfered in multiple samples. Due to a full buffer,
data could be lost at any time. This can't happen any more since the
complete data is reserved in advance and then stored in a single
sample.

Special events such as task or context switches are marked with an
escape code in the cpu buffer followed by an event code or a task
identifier. There is one escape code per event. To make escape
sequences also available for data samples the internal cpu buffer
format must be changed. The current implementation does not allow the
extension of event codes since this would lead to collisions with the
task identifiers. To avoid this, this patch introduces an event mask
that allows the storage of multiple events with one escape code. Now,
task identifiers are stored in the data section of the sample. The
implementation also allows the usage of custom data in a sample. As a
side effect the new code is much more readable and easier to
understand.

This patch fixes the PCI device use count for AMD northbridge
devices. In case of an IBS LVT initialization failure, the PCI device
is released now by calling pci_dev_put().
If there are no initialization errors, the devices are released in
pci_get_device() while iterating.

Implementation of pairwise init/exit funcions for IBS and IBS NMI
setup. There are also some function renames and the removal of forward
function declarations.

This patch adds the logic for enabling additional IBS control bits :
* IBS-Fetch IbsRandEn bit (bit 57)
* IBS-Op IbsOpCntCtl bit (bit 19)

This patch introduces multiplexing support for the Oprofile kernel
module. It basically adds a new function pointer in oprofile_operator
allowing each architecture to supply its callback to switch between
different sets of event when the timer expires. Userspace tools can
modify the time slice through /dev/oprofile/time_slice.
It also modifies the number of counters exposed to the userspace through
/dev/oprofile. For example, the number of counters for AMD CPUs are
changed to 32 and multiplexed in the sets of 4.
