perf: Fix forgotten preempt_enable by nested writers

A writer that gets a reference to the buffer handle disables
preemption. When we put that reference, we check if we are
the outer most writer and if not, we simply return and defer
the head update to the outer most writer. The problem here
is that preemption is only reenabled by the outer most, that
produces preemption count imbalance for every nested writer
that exit.

So just don't forget to always re-enable preemption when we
put the buffer reference, whoever we are.

Fixes lots of sleeping in atomic warnings, visible with lock

We need to consider three different sides that access the hlist:

- the hlist allocation/release side. This side happens when an
  events is created or released, accesses to the hlist are
  serialized under the cpuctx mutex.

- the events insertion/removal in the hlist. This side is always
  serialized against the above one. The hlist is always present
  during such operations. This side happens when a software event
  is scheduled in/out. The serialization that ensures the software
  event is really attached to the context is made under the
  ctx->lock.

- events triggering. This is the read side, it can happen
  concurrently with any update side.

This patch deals with them one by one and anticipates with the

perf stat: add perf stat -B to pretty print large numbers

It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat
to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale
support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for
instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this
feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be
changed. Here is an example.

perf record: Fix bug mismatch with -c option definition

The -c option defines the user requested sampling period. It was implemented
using an unsigned int variable but the type of the option was OPT_LONG. Thus,
the option parser was overwriting memory belonging to other variables, namely
the mmap_pages leading to a zero page sampling buffer. The bug was exposed only
when compiling at -O0, probably because the compiler was padding variables at
higher optimization levels.

This patch fixes this problem by declaring user_interval as u64. This also
avoids wrap-around issues for large period on 32-bit systems.

Commiter note:

Made it use OPT_U64(user_interval) after implementing OPT_U64 in the
previous patch.

We create two constants, write them out to the stack, read them straight back
in and sign extend them. What a mess.

It turns out this bad code is a result of us defining atomic_t as a
volatile int.

We removed the volatile attribute from the powerpc atomic_t definition years
ago, but commit ea435467500612636f8f4fb639ff6e76b2496e4b (atomic_t: unify all
arch definitions) added it back in.

To dig up an old quote from Linus:

And screw up it does :)

With the volatile removed, we see much more reasonable code generation:

c00000000051f5b8:       3b 60 00 01     li      r27,1

c00000000051f5c0:       3b 80 00 00     li      r28,0

x86, mrst, pci: return 0 for non-present pci bars

Moorestown PCI code has special handling of devices with fixed BARs. In
case of BAR sizing writes, we need to update the fake PCI MMCFG space with real
size decode value.

When a BAR is not present, we need to return 0 instead of ~0. ~0 will be
treated as device error per bugzilla 12006.

perf tui: Make <- exit menus too

In fact it is now added to the hot key list when newt_form__new is used,
allowing us to remove the explicit assignment in all its users.

The visible change is that <- will exit the menu that pops up when -> is
pressed (and Enter when callchains are not being used).

    IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED)
      IFLA_VF_MAC
      IFLA_VF_VLAN
      IFLA_VF_TX_RATE

This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired.
Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state.

The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like
something to consider for 2.6.34.

transport may be free before ICMP proto unreachable timer expire, so
