Jiri Olsa 52d857a878 perf: Factor out auxiliary events notification
Add perf_event_aux() function to send out all types of
auxiliary events - mmap, task, comm events. For each type
there's match and output functions defined and used as
callbacks during perf_event_aux processing.

This way we can centralize the pmu/context iterating and
event matching logic. Also since lot of the code was
duplicated, this patch reduces the .text size about 2kB
on my setup:

  snipped output from 'objdump -x kernel/events/core.o'

  before:
  Idx Name          Size
    0 .text         0000d313

  after:
  Idx Name          Size
    0 .text         0000cad3
