Peter Zijlstra 08aa0d1f37 perf tools: Add x86 RDPMC, RDTSC test
Implement a simple test for the self-monitoring data from the
perf mmap data area control page:

 6: x86 rdpmc test:

             0:           6053
             1:          60053
             2:         600059
             3:        6000059
             4:       60000075
             5:      600000247
    Ok

The counts are expected to increase monotonically - these
are recovered via RDPMC, without calling into the kernel.

It might be nice to add logic to automagically turn these numbers into OK/FAIL.
