[Intel-gfx] [CI 03/10] drm/i915/pmu: Suspend sampling when GPU is idle

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

If only a subset of events is enabled we can afford to suspend
the sampling timer when the GPU is idle and so save some cycles
and power.

v2: Rebase and limit timer even more.
v3: Rebase.
v4: Rebase.
v5: Skip action if perf PMU failed to register.
v6: Checkpatch cleanup.
v7:
 * Add a common helper to start the timer if needed. (Chris Wilson)
 * Add comment explaining bitwise logic in pmu_needs_timer.
v8: Fix some comments styles. (Chris Wilson)
v9: Rebase.
