Kan Liang 6466ec14aa perf regs x86: Add X86 specific arch__intr_reg_mask()
XMM registers can be collected on Icelake and later platforms.

Add specific arch__intr_reg_mask(), which creating an event to check if
the kernel and hardware can collect XMM registers.

Test on Skylake which doesn't support XMM registers collection. There is
nothing changed.

   #perf record -I?
   available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9
   R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
    or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

    -I, --intr-regs[=<any register>]
                          sample selected machine registers on
   interrupt, use '-I?' to list register names

   #perf record -I
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.905 MB perf.data (2520 samples) ]

   #perf evlist -v
   cycles: size: 112, { sample_period, sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type:
   IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|REGS_INTR, read_format: ID, disabled: 1,
   inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, precise_ip: 3,
   sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1, ksymbol:
   1, bpf_event: 1, sample_regs_intr: 0xff0fff

   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.800 MB perf.data (318 samples) ]

   #perf evlist -v

   1, bpf_event: 1, sample_regs_intr: 0xffffffff00ff0fff

Committer notes:

Don't set attr.sample_period as a named struct init, as it is part of an
unnamed union in 'struct perf_event_attr', and doing so breaks the build
on older gcc versions, such as:

  gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-55)
  gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-23) (GCC)

  arch/x86/util/perf_regs.c: In function 'arch__intr_reg_mask':
  arch/x86/util/perf_regs.c:279: error: unknown field 'sample_period' specified in initializer
  cc1: warnings being treated as errors
  arch/x86/util/perf_regs.c:279: warning: missing braces around initializer
  arch/x86/util/perf_regs.c:279: warning: (near initialization for 'attr.<anonymous>')
