According to Intel 64 and IA32 Architectures SDM 3B Appendix B, Intel
Nehalem/Westmere processors provide h/w MSR to report the core/package
cstate residencies.Extend sysctl_get_pmstat interface to pass the
core/package cstate residencies, and modify xenpm to output those
information.

This patch eliminate the global variables in libxenctrl (used for
logging and error reporting).
Instead the information which was in the global variables is now in a
new xc_interface* opaque structure, which xc_interface open returns
instead of the raw file descriptor; furthermore, logging is done via
xentoollog.
There are three new parameters to xc_interface_open to control the
logging, but existing callers can just pass "0" for all three to get
the old behaviour.
All libxc callers have been adjusted accordingly.
Also update QEMU_TAG for corresponding qemu change.

Using the CPU number to compare with an index into an array containing
only a subset of CPUs isn't valid. And indicator isn't necessary here
at all since the CPU number being dealt with gets printed right before
this line.

Refactor the existing code that supports the Intel Turbo feature to
move all the driver specific bits in the cpufreq driver. Create
a tri-state interface for the Turbo feature that can distinguish
amongst enabled Turbo, disabled Turbo, and processors that don't
support Turbo at all.

Current scheduler only care performance, thus always picks pCPU from
the most idle package. This knob provides another option to pick pCPU from
least idle package, for user who want performance power balance.

CPU topology info is necessary for power management analysis. For
example, to analysis the effect of Px state coordination, Cx
package/core coordination, the thread/core/socket topology
information is needed.
This patch add new command "get-cpu-topology" in xenpm to print the
CPU topology info:

Two enhancements are made in this patch:
1. Make cpuid in command line optional: if user does not provide
cpuid, xenpm will operate on all the CPUs. this will easy the xenpm
usage. e.g. to set the cpufreq governor, user usually want to set the
governor on all CPUs. User can accomplish this easily with this
enhancement.
2. Add another option "xenpm start" to calculate the Cx/Px state
residency percentage during specified period. when user issue "xenpm
start", xenpm will start to record the Cx/Px state residency. when
user issue CTRL-C, xenpm will stop and show the Cx/Px state residency
and percentage of this period. this is helpful to measure the xenpm
effect for speficied workload.

tune the parameters manually.
Now, xenpm can be invoked with the following options:
Usage:
xenpm get-cpuidle-states [cpuid]: list cpu idle information on
CPU cpuid or all CPUs.
xenpm get-cpufreq-states [cpuid]: list cpu frequency
information on CPU cpuid or all CPUs.
xenpm get-cpufreq-para [cpuid]: list cpu frequency information
on CPU cpuid or all CPUs.
xenpm set-scaling-maxfreq <cpuid> <HZ>: set max cpu frequency
<HZ> on CPU <cpuid>.
xenpm set-scaling-minfreq <cpuid> <HZ>: set min cpu frequency
<HZ> on CPU <cpuid>.
xenpm set-scaling-governor <cpuid> <name>: set scaling governor
on CPU <cpuid>.
xenpm set-scaling-speed <cpuid> <num>: set scaling speed on CPU
<cpuid>.
xenpm set-sampling-rate <cpuid> <num>: set sampling rate on CPU
<cpuid>.
xenpm set-up-threshold <cpuid> <num>: set up threshold on CPU
<cpuid>.
To ease the use of this tool, the shortcut option is supported,
i.e. `xenpm get-cpui' is equal to `xenpm get-cpuidle-states'.
