Kan Liang 75be6f703a perf/x86/uncore: Fix event group support
The events in the same group don't start or stop simultaneously.
Here is the ftrace when enabling event group for uncore_iio_0:

  # perf stat -e "{uncore_iio_0/event=0x1/,uncore_iio_0/event=0xe/}"

            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064832: read_msr: a41, value
  b2b0b030		//Read counter reg of IIO unit0 counter0
            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064835: write_msr: a48, value
  400001			//Write Ctrl reg of IIO unit0 counter0 to enable
  counter0. <------ Although counter0 is enabled, Unit Ctrl is still
  freezed. Nothing will count. We are still good here.
            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064836: read_msr: a40, value
  30100                   //Read Unit Ctrl reg of IIO unit0
            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064838: write_msr: a40, value
  30000			//Write Unit Ctrl reg of IIO unit0 to enable all
  counters in the unit by clear Freeze bit  <------Unit0 is un-freezed.
  Counter0 has been enabled. Now it starts counting. But counter1 has not
  been enabled yet. The issue starts here.
            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064846: read_msr: a42, value 0
			//Read counter reg of IIO unit0 counter1
            <idle>-0     [000] d.h.  8959.064847: write_msr: a49, value
  40000e			//Write Ctrl reg of IIO unit0 counter1 to enable
  counter1.   <------ Now, counter1 just starts to count. Counter0 has
  been running for a while.

Current code un-freezes the Unit Ctrl right after the first counter is
enabled. The subsequent group events always loses some counter values.

Implement pmu_enable and pmu_disable support for uncore, which can help
to batch hardware accesses.

No one uses uncore_enable_box and uncore_disable_box. Remove them.

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.

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.
