Summary: core event: EXT_SNOOP

Initial Comment:

opcontrol --list-events shows:

EXT_SNOOP: (counter: all)
        External snoops (min count: 500)
        Unit masks (default 0x3)
        ----------
        0x00: bus: this agent
        0x10: bus: include all agents
        0x01: snoop: CMP2I snoops
        0x02: snoop: CMP2S snoops

CMP2I seems to make no sense for this event. The
documentation (Table 18-11 vol3b) specifies a different
set of unit masks.

0x80: HITM
0x20: HIT
0x10: CLEAN

I noticed that the unit masks are shifted by 8 in the
EVTSELx MSRs. So the correct unit masks should be:
       
        0x08: snoop: HITM snoops
        0x02: snoop: HIT snoops
        0x01: snoop: CLEAN snoops
