> Currently, the SMIs are visible to all performance counters. Because many

> When setting FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL, all performance
> counters will be effected. There is no way to do per-counter freeze on SMI.
> So it should not use the per-event interface (e.g. ioctl or event attribute) to
> set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit.
> 
> Adds sysfs entry /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi to set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM
> bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL. When set, freezes perfmon and trace messages while
> in SMM.
> Value has to be 0 or 1. It will be applied to all processors.
> Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get multiple concurrent threads
> trying to update to different values.
