[PATCH V9 03/13] perf/x86/intel/pt: Add support for pause / resume

[Adrian Hunter]

Prevent tracing to start if aux_paused.

Implement support for PERF_EF_PAUSE / PERF_EF_RESUME. When aux_paused, stop
tracing. When not aux_paused, only start tracing if it isn't currently
meant to be stopped.

Changes in V9:
	Add more comments and barriers for resume_allowed and
	pause_allowed
	Always use WRITE_ONCE with resume_allowed
