[RFC PATCH 3/5] x86/ibs: Enable per-process IBS from sched switch path

From: Bharata B Rao
Date: Wed Feb 08 2023 - 02:37:09 EST


Program IBS for access profiling for threads from the
task sched switch path. IBS is programmed with a period
that corresponds to the incoming thread. Kernel threads are
excluded from this.

The sample period is currently kept at a fixed value of 10000.
