perf/x86: Add RAPL hrtimer support
The RAPL PMU counters do not interrupt on overflow. Therefore, the kernel needs to poll the counters to avoid missing an overflow. This patch adds the hrtimer code to do this. The timer interval is calculated at boot time based on the power unit used by the HW. There is one hrtimer per-cpu to handle the case of multiple simultaneous use across cores on the same package + hotplug CPU. Thanks to Maria Dimakopoulou for her contributions to this patch especially on the math aspects.
