Adding perf_msr_probe function to provide interface for
checking up on MSR register and set the related attribute
group visibility.
User defines following struct for each MSR register:
struct perf_msr {
u64 msr;
struct attribute_group *grp;
bool (*test)(int idx, void *data);
bool no_check;
};
Where:
msr - is the MSR address
attrs - is attribute groups array to add if the check passed
test - is test function pointer
no_check - is bool that bypass the check and adds the
attribute without any test
The array of struct perf_msr is passed into:
perf_msr_probe(struct perf_msr *msr, int cnt, bool zero, void *data)
Together with:
cnt - which is the number of struct msr array elements
data - which is user pointer passed to the test function
zero - allow counters that returns zero on rdmsr
The perf_msr_probe will executed test code, read the MSR and
check the value is != 0. If all these tests pass, related
attribute group is kept visible.
Also adding PMU_EVENT_GROUP macro helper to define attribute
group for single attribute. It will be used in following patches.

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.
