perf_event_print_debug() dumps the global control and status MSRs whenever x86_pmu.version >= 2, reading registers that exist only on Intel-compatible PMUs. This is not safe since x86_pmu.version is not Intel-specific and is now set by other vendors whose global registers use different addresses. As a first step, split perf_event_print_debug() in two. The register dump moves into a new common helper, x86_pmu_print_debug(), leaving perf_event_print_debug() to handle the preamble and dispatch to an optional x86_pmu::print_debug method. This lets each vendor-specific PMU dump its own global state before chaining into the common helper. PMUs that do not implement the method, such as those with x86_pmu.version < 2, get the common helper alone. No functional change intended.
