Thre fixes/updates for perf:
- Fix the perf event cgroup tracking which tries to track the cgroup even
for disabled events.
- Add Ice Lake server support for uncore events
- Disable pagefaults when retrieving the physical address in the sampling
code.
perf/core: Disable page faults when getting phys address
We hit following warning when running tests on kernel
compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y:

While __get_user_pages_fast() is IRQ-safe, it calls access_ok(),
which warns on:
WARN_ON_ONCE(!in_task() && !pagefault_disabled())
Peter suggested disabling page faults around __get_user_pages_fast(),
which gets rid of the warning in access_ok() call.
