x86/perf/cqm: Wipe out perf based cqm

'perf cqm' never worked due to the incompatibility between perf
infrastructure and cqm hardware support.  The hardware uses RMIDs to
track the llc occupancy of tasks and these RMIDs are per package. This
makes monitoring a hierarchy like cgroup along with monitoring of tasks
separately difficult and several patches sent to lkml to fix them were
NACKed. Further more, the following issues in the current perf cqm make
it almost unusable:

    1. No support to monitor the same group of tasks for which we do
    allocation using resctrl.

    2. It gives random and inaccurate data (mostly 0s) once we run out
    of RMIDs due to issues in Recycling.

    3. Recycling results in inaccuracy of data because we cannot
    guarantee that the RMID was stolen from a task when it was not
    pulling data into cache or even when it pulled the least data. Also
    for monitoring llc_occupancy, if we stop using an RMID_x and then
    start using an RMID_y after we reclaim an RMID from an other event,
    we miss accounting all the occupancy that was tagged to RMID_x at a
    later perf_count.

    2. Recycling code makes the monitoring code complex including
    scheduling because the event can lose RMID any time. Since MBM
    counters count bandwidth for a period of time by taking snap shot of
    total bytes at two different times, recycling complicates the way we
    count MBM in a hierarchy. Also we need a spin lock while we do the
    processing to account for MBM counter overflow. We also currently
    use a spin lock in scheduling to prevent the RMID from being taken
    away.

    4. Lack of support when we run different kind of event like task,
    system-wide and cgroup events together. Data mostly prints 0s. This
    is also because we can have only one RMID tied to a cpu as defined
    by the cqm hardware but a perf can at the same time tie multiple
    events during one sched_in.

    5. No support of monitoring a group of tasks. There is partial support
    for cgroup but it does not work once there is a hierarchy of cgroups
    or if we want to monitor a task in a cgroup and the cgroup itself.

    6. No support for monitoring tasks for the lifetime without perf
    overhead.

    7. It reported the aggregate cache occupancy or memory bandwidth over
    all sockets. But most cloud and VMM based use cases want to know the
    individual per-socket usage.
