    ve/perf: forbid perf events syscall in containers
    
    If some process has perf_event_open fd it can monitor different (kernel,
    hardware, etc) perfomance counters through it. And this fd is configured
    through perf_event_attr which has more than 30 fields. There is
    currently no kernel interface to get the configuration of existing perf
    event fd. So to dump such an fd with CRIU we should add this interface.
    
    We have ovs-vswitchd, which opens perf event fd and does nothing with it
    according to comments, it is only used in case someone will use PERF()
    macros to debug some code parts which implies recompilation of ovs. But
    it is still a problem on migration because CRIU detects this fd and
    fails. Also ovs can handle if it can't open perf event fd and fallbacks
    gracefully to work without it.
    
    So (at least for now) we should forbid this interface, to fix problems
    with ovs daemon migration.
