The data structure (i.e struct imc_mem_info) to hold the memory address
information for nest imc units is allocated based on the number of nodes
in the system.
nest_imc_event_init() traverse this struct array to calculate the memory
base address for the event-cpu. If we fail to find a match for the event
cpu's chip-id in imc_mem_info struct array, then the do-while loop will
iterate until we crash.
Fix this by changing the loop exit condition based on the number of
non zero vbase elements in the array, since the allocation is done for
nr_chips + 1.

Since thread-imc internally use the core-imc hardware infrastructure
and is depended on it, having thread-imc in the kernel in the
absence of core-imc is trivial. Patch disables thread-imc, if
core-imc is not registered.

When any of the IMC (In-Memory Collection counter) devices fail
to initialize, imc_common_mem_free() frees set of memory. In doing so,
pmu_ptr pointer is also freed. But pmu_ptr pointer is used in subsequent
function (imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free()) which is wrong. Patch here reorders
the code to avoid such access.
Also free the memory which is dynamically allocated during imc
initialization, wherever required.

The OPAL IMC driver's shutdown handler disables nest PMU counters by
walking nodes and taking the first CPU out of their cpumask, which is
used to index into the paca (get_hard_smp_processor_id()). This does
not always do the right thing, and in particular for CPU-less nodes it
returns NR_CPUS and that overruns the paca and dereferences random
memory.
Fix it by being more careful about checking returned CPU, and only
using online CPUs. It's not clear this shutdown code makes sense after
commit 885dcd709b ("powerpc/perf: Add nest IMC PMU support"), but this
should not make things worse
Currently the bug causes us to call OPAL with a junk CPU number. A
separate patch in development to change the way pacas are allocated
escalates this bug into a crash:

In memory Collection (IMC) counter pmu driver controls the ucode's
execution state. At the system boot, IMC perf driver pause the ucode.
Ucode state is changed to "running" only when any of the nest units
are monitored or profiled using perf tool.
Nest units support only limited set of hardware counters and ucode is
always programmed in the "production mode" ("accumulation") mode. This
mode is configured to provide key performance metric data for most of
the nest units.
But ucode also supports other modes which would be used for "debug" to
drill down specific nest units. That is, ucode when switched to
"powerbus" debug mode (for example), will dynamically reconfigure the
nest counters to target only "powerbus" related events in the hardware
counters. This allows the IMC nest unit to focus on powerbus related
transactions in the system in more detail. At this point, production
mode events may or may not be counted.
IMC nest counters has both in-band (ucode access) and out of band
access to it. Since not all nest counter configurations are supported
by ucode, out of band tools are used to characterize other nest
counter configurations.
Patch provides an interface via "debugfs" to enable the switching of
ucode modes in the system. To switch ucode mode, one has to first
pause the microcode (imc_cmd), and then write the target mode value to
the "imc_mode" file.
Proposed Approach:
In the proposed approach, the function (export_imc_mode_and_cmd) which
creates the debugfs interface for imc mode and command is implemented
in opal-imc.c. Thus we can use imc_get_mem_addr() to get the homer
base address for each chip.
The interface to expose imc mode and command is required only if we
have nest pmu units registered. Employing the existing data structures
to track whether we have any nest units registered will require to
extend data from perf side to opal-imc.c. Instead an integer is
introduced to hold that information by counting successful nest unit
registration. Debugfs interface is removed based on the integer count.
Example for the interface:
$ ls /sys/kernel/debug/imc
imc_cmd_0 imc_cmd_8 imc_mode_0 imc_mode_8

IMC_MAX_PMU is used for static storage (per_nest_pmu_arr) which holds
nest pmu information. Current value for the macro is 32 based on
the initial number of nest pmu units supported by the nest microcode.
But going forward, microcode could support more nest units. Instead
of static storage, patch to fix the code to dynamically allocate an
array based on the number of nest imc units found in the device tree.

This happens because when CONFIG_NUMA=n cpumask_of_node() returns a
const pointer.
This patch simply adds const to l_cpumask to fix this issue.

Add support to register Nest In-Memory Collection PMU counters.

folder to contain all the device PMU functions.
Device tree parser code added to parse the PMU events information
and create sysfs event attributes for the PMU.
Cpumask attribute added along with Cpu hotplug online/offline functions
specific for nest PMU. A new state "CPUHP_AP_PERF_POWERPC_NEST_IMC_ONLINE"

New header file created to contain the data structures and macros

The device tree for IMC counters starts at the node "imc-counters".
This node contains all the IMC PMU nodes and event nodes for these IMC
PMUs. Device probe() parses the device to locate three possible IMC
device types (Nest/Core/Thread). Function then branch to parse each
unit nodes to populate vital information such as device memory sizes,
event nodes information, base address for reserve memory access (if
any) and so on. Simple bare-minimum shutdown function added which only
