perf_evlist__propagate_maps() incorrectly assumes evsel->threads is NULL
before reassigning it, but it won't be NULL when perf_evlist__set_maps()
is used to set different (or NULL) maps. Thus thread_map__put must be
used, which works even if evsel->threads is NULL.

Commit d49e469507 ("perf evsel: Add a backpointer to the evlist a

perf_evlist__splice_list_tail().
This illustrates that it is better if perf_evlist__splice_list_tail()
calls perf_evlist__add() instead of duplicating the logic, so do that.
This will also simplify a subsequent fix for propagating maps.

The validation checks that the values that were just assigned, got
assigned i.e. the error can't ever happen. Subsequent patches will call
this code in places where errors are not being returned. Changing those
code paths to return this non-existent error is counter-productive, so
just remove it.
That in turn results in perf_evlist__set_maps not needing to return an
error, but callers aren't checking it either, so remove that too.

regs_query_register_offset() is a helper function which converts
register name like "%rax" to offset of a register in 'struct pt_regs',
which is required by BPF prologue generator. Since the function is
identical, try to reuse the code in arch/x86/kernel/ptrace.c.
Comment inside dwarf-regs.c list the differences between this
implementation and kernel code.
get_arch_regstr() switches to regoffset_table and the old string table
is dropped.

- Group cpu information reading functions in tools/lib/api/cpu.[ch],
starting with cpu__get_max_freq() from a patchkit by Kan Liang.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Retrieve the MSR PMU type from a perf.data file header and store it
in struct perf_env. (Kan Liang)

'perf top' segfaults with following operation:
# perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 # 11400 never generates page-fault
Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key:
# ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400
perf: Segmentation fault

The bug resides in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above
circumstance browser->selection can be NULL, but code after
skip_annotation doesn't consider it.
This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching
browser->selection->map.

[ Don't blindly use env->cpu[al.cpu].socket_id & use machine->env, fixes by Jiri & Arnaldo ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
The 'struct machine' represents the machine where the samples were/are
being collected, and we also have a 'struct perf_env' with extra details
about such machine, that we were collecting at 'perf.data' creation time
but we also needed when no perf.data file is being used, such as in
'perf top'.
So, get those structs closer together, as they provide a bigger picture
of the sample's environment.
In 'perf session', when the file argument is NULL, we can assume that
the tool is sampling the running machine, so point machine->env to
the global put in place in previous patches, while set it to the
perf_header.env one when reading from a file.
This paves the way for machine->env to be used in
perf_event__preprocess_sample to populate addr_location.socket.

Out of the code to write the cpu topology map in the perf.data file
header.
Now if one needs the CPU topology map for the running machine, one needs
to call perf_env__read_cpu_topology_map(perf_env) and the info will be
stored in perf_env.cpu.
For now we're using a global perf_env variable, that will have its
contents freed after we run a builtin.

E.g.:
$ ./cpu__get_max_freq
3200000
It does that, as Kan's patch does, by looking at these files:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online
0-3
$ ./sysfs__read_ull
devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq=3200000
$
I.e. find out the first online CPU, then read its cpufreq info.
But do it in tools/lib/api/, so that other tools/ living code can use
it, not just perf.

Move this from two globals to perf_env global, that eventually will
be just perf_header->env or something else, to ease the refactoring
series, leave it as a global and go on reading more of its fields,
not as part of the header writing process but as a perf_env init one
that will be used for perf.data-less situations.

In preparation for introducing more arrays of tests, e.g. "arch tests"
(architecture-specific tests), abstract the code to iterate over the
list of tests into a helper function.
This way, code that uses a 'struct test' doesn't need to worry about how
the tests are grouped together and changes to the list of tests doesn't
require changes to the code using it.
