Subject[PATCH 0/4] Tidy user rdpmc documentation and testing
From
libperf's perf_mmap__read_self and the addition of arm64 support mean
that the perf_event.h and the rdpmc perf test have become
stale. Refresh the documentation in perf_event.h, remove the x86 rdpmc
test and port the libperf test as a non-architecture specific test.

Address sanitizer testing showed libperf leaking fds when the
perf_event_open failed, add error paths to handle this.

A comment is added to perf_event.h to avoid a divide by zero when
scaling counts if the running time is 0. This was previously discussed
in this thread:

Ian Rogers (4):
libperf evsel: Open shouldn't leak fd on failure
perf: Align user space counter reading with code
perf test: Remove x86 rdpmc test
perf test: Add user space counter reading tests
