In the following patches we will enable LBR capture on AMD CPUs at
arbitrary point in time, which means that LBR recording won't be frozen
by hardware automatically as part of hardware overflow event. So we need
to take care to minimize amount of branches and function calls/returns
on the path to freezing LBR, minimizing LBR snapshot altering as much as
possible.

As such, split out LBR disabling logic from the sanity checking logic
inside amd_pmu_lbr_disable_all(). This will ensure that no branches are
taken before LBR is frozen in the functionality added in the next patch.
Use __always_inline to also eliminate any possible function calls.
