sched: Don't export sched_mc_power_savings on multi-socket single core system
Fix to prevent sched_mc_power_saving from being exported through sysfs
for multi-scoket single core system. Max cores should be always greater than
one (1). My earlier patch that introduced fix for not exporting
'sched_mc_power_saving' on laptops broke it on multi-socket single core
system. This fix addresses issue on both laptop and multi-socket single
core system.
Below are the Test results:
1. Single socket - multi-core
Before Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
Result: Pass
2. Multi Socket - single core
Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: Does not export 'sched_mc_power_saving'
Result: Pass
3. Multi Socket - Multi core
Before Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
After Patch: exports 'sched_mc_power_saving'
[ Impact: make the sched_mc_power_saving control available more consistently ]

perf_counter: don't count scheduler ticks as context switches
The context-switch software counter gives inflated values at present
because each scheduler tick and each process-wide counter
enable/disable prctl gets counted as a context switch.
This happens because perf_counter_task_tick, perf_counter_task_disable
and perf_counter_task_enable all call perf_counter_task_sched_out,
which calls perf_swcounter_event to record a context switch event.
This fixes it by introducing a variant of perf_counter_task_sched_out
with two underscores in front for internal use within the perf_counter
code, and makes perf_counter_task_{tick,disable,enable} call it. This
variant doesn't record a context switch event, and takes a struct
perf_counter_context *. This adds the new variant rather than
changing the behaviour or interface of perf_counter_task_sched_out
because that is called from other code.

perf_counter: Put whole group on when enabling group leader
Currently, if you have a group where the leader is disabled and there
are siblings that are enabled, and then you enable the leader, we only
put the leader on the PMU, and not its enabled siblings. This is
incorrect, since the enabled group members should be all on or all off
at any given point.
This fixes it by adding a call to group_sched_in in
__perf_counter_enable in the case where we're enabling a group leader.
To avoid the need for a forward declaration this also moves
group_sched_in up before __perf_counter_enable. The actual content of
group_sched_in is unchanged by this patch.

The calculation comparing e820ram and pxmram assumes the units are bytes,

x86: read apic ID in the !acpi_lapic case
Ed found that on 32-bit, boot_cpu_physical_apicid is not read right,
when the mptable is broken.
Interestingly, actually three paths use/set it:
1. acpi: at that time that is already read from reg
2. mptable: only read from mptable
3. no madt, and no mptable, that use default apic id 0 for 64-bit, -1 for 32-bit
so we could read the apic id for the 2/3 path. We trust the hardware
register more than we trust a BIOS data structure (the mptable).
We can also avoid the double set_fixmap() when acpi_lapic
is used, and also need to move cpu_has_apic earlier and
call apic_disable().
Also when need to update the apic id, we'd better read and
set the apic version as well - so that quirks are applied precisely.
v2: make path 3 with 64bit, use -1 as apic id, so could read it later.
v3: fix whitespace problem pointed out by Ed Swierk

Now that the e820 code explicitly reserves 'potentially dangerous'

there's no need for the rounding quirk in the PCI allocator anymore.
Also, this quirk was open-ended iteration that could end up reserving
a lot of free space and potentially breaking drivers - such as the one
reported by Yannick Roehlly <yannick.roehlly@free.fr> where there's
a PCI device with a large memory resource.
