Subject: x86/events/intel/ds: Enable large PEBS for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_TYPE
Git-commit: e60b7cb089f216a26d478f5ad8f811a1de65f382
Patch-mainline: v6.0-rc1
References: jsc#PED-1752

All the information required by the PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT is
available in the pebs record. Thus large PEBS could be enabled
for PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT sample type to save PMIs overhead until
other non-compatible flags such as PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_PAGE_SIZE
(due to lack of munmap tracking) stop it.

To cover new weight extension, add PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_TYPE
to the guardian LARGE_PEBS_FLAGS.

Tested it with:

$ perf mem record -c 1000 workload
Before: Captured and wrote 0.126 MB perf.data (958 samples) [958 PMIs]
After: Captured and wrote 0.313 MB perf.data (4859 samples) [3 PMIs]
