3d88aec0d4 perf pmu: Make parser reentrant
By default bison uses global state for compatibility with yacc. Make
the parser reentrant so that it may be used in asynchronous and
multithreaded situations.

e552b7be12 perf: Skip and warn on unknown format 'configN' attrs
If the kernel exposes a new perf_event_attr field in a format attr, perf
will return an error stating the specified PMU can't be found. For
example, a format attr with 'config3:0-63' causes an error as config3 is
unknown to perf. This causes a compatibility issue between a newer
kernel with older perf tool.

Before this change with a kernel adding 'config3' I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  event syntax error: 'arm_spe//'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `arm_spe'. Missing kernel support?
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list
  available events

After this change, I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  WARNING: 'arm_spe_0' format 'inv_event_filter' requires 'perf_event_attr::config3' which is not supported by this version of perf!
  [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.091 MB perf.data ]

To support unknown configN formats, rework the YACC implementation to
pass any config[0-9]+ format to perf_pmu__new_format() to handle with a
warning.

cd82a32e99 perf tools: Add perf pmu object to access pmu format definition
Adding pmu object which provides interface to pmu's sysfs
event format definition located at:
  ${sysfs_mount}/bus/event_source/devices/${pmu}/format

Following interface is exported:
  struct perf_pmu* perf_pmu__find(char *name);
  - this function returns pmu object, which is then
    passed as a handle to other interface functions

  int perf_pmu__config(struct perf_pmu *pmu, struct perf_event_attr *attr,
                       struct list_head *head_terms);
  - this function configures perf_event_attr struct based
    on pmu's format definitions and config terms data,
    containined in head_terms list.

Parser generator is used to retrive the pmu's format definition.
The generated parser is part of the patch. Added makefile rule
'pmu-parser' to generate the parser code out of the bison/flex
sources.

Added builtin test 'Test perf pmu format parsing', which could
be run like:
	perf test pmu
