perf: Avoid the read if the count is already updated
The event may have been updated in the PMU-specific implementation, e.g., Intel PEBS counters snapshotting. The common code should not read and overwrite the value. The PERF_SAMPLE_READ in the data->sample_type can be used to detect whether the PMU-specific value is available. If yes, avoid the pmu->read() in the common code. Add a new flag, skip_read, to track the case. Factor out a perf_pmu_read() to clean up the code. Signed-off-by:Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by:
