Zhengjun Xing 96fd2e89fb perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix CAS_COUNT_WRITE issue for ICX
The user recently report a perf issue in the ICX platform, when test by
perf event “uncore_imc_x/cas_count_write”,the write bandwidth is always
very small (only 0.38MB/s), it is caused by the wrong "umask" for the
"cas_count_write" event. When double-checking, find "cas_count_read"
also is wrong.

The public document for ICX uncore:

3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Processor Scalable Family, Codename Ice Lake,Uncore
Performance Monitoring Reference Manual, Revision 1.00, May 2021

On 2.4.7, it defines Unit Masks for CAS_COUNT:
RD b00001111
WR b00110000

So corrected both "cas_count_read" and "cas_count_write" for ICX.

Old settings:
 hswep_uncore_imc_events
	INTEL_UNCORE_EVENT_DESC(cas_count_read,  "event=0x04,umask=0x03")
	INTEL_UNCORE_EVENT_DESC(cas_count_write, "event=0x04,umask=0x0c")

New settings:
 snr_uncore_imc_events
	INTEL_UNCORE_EVENT_DESC(cas_count_read,  "event=0x04,umask=0x0f")
	INTEL_UNCORE_EVENT_DESC(cas_count_write, "event=0x04,umask=0x30")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
