[PATCH V2] perf/x86/intel/ds: Fix the conversion from TSC to perf time

[kan.liang@linux.intel.com]

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>

The time order is incorrect when the TSC in a PEBS record is used.

 $perf record -e cycles:upp dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null
  count=10000
 $ perf script --show-task-events
       perf-exec     0     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_COMM: perf-exec:915/915
              dd   915   106.479872: PERF_RECORD_COMM exec: dd:915/915
              dd   915   106.483270: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(915:915):(914:914)
              dd   915   106.512429:          1 cycles:upp:
 ffffffff96c011b7 [unknown] ([unknown])
 ... ...

The perf time is from sched_clock_cpu(). The current PEBS code
unconditionally convert the TSC to native_sched_clock(). There is a
shift between the two clocks. If the TSC is stable, the shift is
consistent, __sched_clock_offset. If the TSC is unstable, the shift has
to be calculated at runtime.

This patch doesn't support the conversion when the TSC is unstable. The
TSC unstable case is a corner case and very unlikely to happen. If it
happens, the TSC in a PEBS record will be dropped and fall back to
perf_event_clock().
