[PATCH] perf, x86, uncore: Disable SBOX driver on Haswell EP

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

There were several reports that enabling the freeze and reset
counter bits for the SBOX pmu on Haswell EP causes #GPs at boot,
preventing successfull boot. It only happens on some systems
(not on mine)

The problem is still under investigation.

For now just disable the SBOX uncore PMU. We can reenable it later
once it works everywhere.

Thanks to Alexei Starovoitov for debugging.
