[kvm-unit-tests Patch v4 04/17] x86: pmu: Fix the issue that pmu_counter_t.config crosses cache line

[Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>]

When running pmu test on SPR, the following #GP fault is reported.

FAIL pmu

It looks EVENTSEL0 MSR (0x186) is written a invalid value (0x4031ad) and
cause a #GP.

Further investigation shows the #GP is caused by below code in
__start_event().

rmsr(MSR_GP_EVENT_SELECTx(event_to_global_idx(evt)),
		  evt->config | EVNTSEL_EN);

The evt->config is correctly initialized but seems corrupted before
writing to MSR.

The original pmu_counter_t layout looks as below.

typedef struct {
	uint32_t ctr;
	uint64_t config;
	uint64_t count;
	int idx;
} pmu_counter_t;

Obviously the config filed crosses two cache lines. When the two cache
lines are not updated simultaneously, the config value is corrupted.

Adjust pmu_counter_t fields order and ensure config field is cache-line
aligned.
