[PATCH v2 02/32] perf/x86/intel/cqm: software cache for MSR_IA32_PQR_ASSOC

[David Carrillo-Cisneros <davidcc@google.com>]

The msr MSR_IA32_PQR_ASSOC is shared by CQM and the upcoming CAT. Since
writes to this msr are slow (more than 1000 cycles) and mostly occur in
context switch, this patch introduces a software cache that avoids wrsmr
that wont change the msr's value.
