Within an event group, only events with the same value for the extra reg can co-exist. This was not checked by validate_group() because it was missing the shared_regs logic. This patch changes the allocation of the fake cpuc used for validation to also point to a fake shared_regs structure such that group events be properly testing. It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to use spin_lock_irqsave() to avoid lockdep issues.
