This patch series adds support for Processor Activity Instrumentation
(PAI) for cryptography instructions. A new Performance Measurement
Unit (PMU) is introduced. It reads memory mapped counter values
incremented when a CPU executes certain instructions.
To differentiate between user space and kernel space counter
increments, the memory mapping is changed on system call
entry/exit and IRQ entry/exit. Patch 1 prepares that transition,
patch 2 introduces the new PMU and kernel vs user space
memory mappings.
