Jiri Olsa 74cbb754d6 perf/x86: Add check_period PMU callback
commit 81ec3f3c4c upstream.

Vince (and later on Ravi) reported crashes in the BTS code during
fuzzing with the following backtrace:

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
  ...
  RIP: 0010:perf_prepare_sample+0x8f/0x510

   </IRQ>

The reason is that while event init code does several checks
for BTS events and prevents several unwanted config bits for
BTS event (like precise_ip), the PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD allows
to create BTS event without those checks being done.

Following sequence will cause the crash:

If we create an 'almost' BTS event with precise_ip and callchains,
and it into a BTS event it will crash the perf_prepare_sample()
function because precise_ip events are expected to come
in with callchain data initialized, but that's not the
case for intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() caller.

Adding a check_period callback to be called before the period
is changed via PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD. It will deny the change
if the event would become BTS. Plus adding also the limit_period
check as well.
