x86,perf: Disable intel_bts when PTI
The intel_bts driver does not use the 'normal' BTS buffer which is exposed through the cpu_entry_area but instead uses the memory allocated for the perf AUX buffer. This obviously comes apart when using PTI because then the kernel mapping; which includes that AUX buffer memory; disappears. Fixing this requires to expose a mapping which is visible in all context and that's not trivial. As a quick fix disable this driver when PTI is enabled to prevent malfunction.
