Anshuman Khandual 92f2b8bafa drivers/perf: arm_spe: Fix consistency of SYS_PMSCR_EL1.CX
The arm_spe_pmu driver will enable SYS_PMSCR_EL1.CX in order to add CONTEXT
packets into the traces, if the owner of the perf event runs with required
capabilities i.e CAP_PERFMON or CAP_SYS_ADMIN via perfmon_capable() helper.

The value of this bit is computed in the arm_spe_event_to_pmscr() function
but the check for capabilities happens in the pmu event init callback i.e
arm_spe_pmu_event_init(). This suggests that the value of the CX bit should
remain consistent for the duration of the perf session.

However, the function arm_spe_event_to_pmscr() may be called later during
the event start callback i.e arm_spe_pmu_start() when the "current" process
is not the owner of the perf session, hence the CX bit setting is currently
not consistent.

One way to fix this, is by caching the required value of the CX bit during
the initialization of the PMU event, so that it remains consistent for the
duration of the session. It uses currently unused 'event->hw.flags' element
to cache perfmon_capable() value, which can be referred during event start
callback to compute SYS_PMSCR_EL1.CX. This ensures consistent availability
of context packets in the trace as per event owner capabilities.

Drop BIT(SYS_PMSCR_EL1_CX_SHIFT) check in arm_spe_pmu_event_init(), because
now CX bit cannot be set in arm_spe_event_to_pmscr() with perfmon_capable()
disabled.
