x86/intel_rdt: Create required perf event attributes A perf event has many attributes that are maintained in a separate structure that should be provided when a new perf_event is created. In preparation for the transition to perf_events the required attribute structures are created for all the events that may be used in the measurements. Most attributes for all the events are identical. The actual configuration, what specifies what needs to be measured, is what will be different between the events used. This configuration needs to be done with X86_CONFIG that cannot be used as part of the designated initializers used here, this will be introduced later. Although they do look identical at this time the attribute structures needs to be maintained separately since a perf_event will maintain a pointer to its unique attributes. In support of patch testing the new structs are given the unused attribute until their use in later patches.
