[PATCH] perf/events: Replace READ_ONCE() with standard pgtable accessors

[Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@arm.com>]

Replace raw READ_ONCE() dereferences of pgtable entries with corresponding
standard page table accessors pxdp_get() in perf_get_pgtable_size(). These
accessors default to READ_ONCE() on platforms that don't override them. So
there is no functional change on such platforms.

However arm64 platform is being extended to support 128 bit page tables via
a new architecture feature i.e FEAT_D128 in which case READ_ONCE() will not
provide required single copy atomic access for 128 bit page table entries.
Although pxdp_get() accessors can later be overridden on arm64 platform to
extend required single copy atomicity support on 128 bit entries.

This patch applies both on v7.0-rc1 and mm-unstable.

Part of the D128 series but independent. Hence could be considered on its own.
