     Alderlake and its BIG/little core/atom cpus.

   - Introduce 'bperf' to share hardware PMCs with BPF.

   - New --iostat option to collect and present IO stats on Intel
     hardware.

     This functionality is based on recently introduced sysfs attributes
     for Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor family (code name Skylake-SP)
     in commit bb42b3d3 ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Expose an Uncore
     unit to IIO PMON mapping")

     It is intended to provide four I/O performance metrics in MB per
     each PCIe root port:

       - Inbound Read: I/O devices below root port read from the host memory
       - Inbound Write: I/O devices below root port write to the host memory
       - Outbound Read: CPU reads from I/O devices below root port
       - Outbound Write: ...
