perf/x86/intel: Rename DMR offcore_rsp attribute to offmodule_rspgrafted
DMR introduces Offmodule Response events in place of the legacy Offcore Response events, but it still exposes the inherited offcore_rsp PMU attribute for programming the corresponding MSR data. Rename the DMR PMU attribute to offmodule_rsp so the sysfs interface matches the underlying event name and avoids user & tooling confusion.

+Options for the ipv6 module are supplied as parameters at load time.
+
+Module options may be given as command line arguments to the insmod
+or modprobe command, but are usually specified in either
+``/etc/modules.d/*.conf`` configuration files, or in a distro-specific
+configuration file.
+
+The available ipv6 module parameters are listed below. If a parameter
+is not specified the default value is used.
+
+The parameters are as follows:
+
+disable
+
+ Specifies whether to load the IPv6 module, but disable all
+ its functionality. This might be used when another module
+ has a dependency on the IPv6 module being loaded, but no
+ IPv6 addresses or operations are desired.
+
+ The possible values and their effects are:
+
+ 0
+ IPv6 is enabled.
+
+ This is the default value.
+
+ 1
+ IPv6 is disabled.
+
+ No IPv6 addresses will be added to interfaces, and
+ it will not be possible to open an IPv6 socket.
+
+ A reboot is required to enable IPv6.
+
+autoconf
+
+ Specifies whether to enable IPv6 address autoconfiguration
+ on all interfaces. This might be used when one does not wish
+ for addresses to be automatically generated from prefixes
+ received in Router Advertisements.
+
+ The possible values and their effects are:
+
+ 0
+ IPv6 address autoconfiguration is disabled on all interfaces.
+
+ Only the IPv6 loopback address (::1) and link-local addresses
+ will be added to interfaces.
+
+ 1
+ IPv6 address autoconfiguration is enabled on all interfaces.
+
+ This is the default value.
+
+disable_ipv6
+
+ Specifies whether to disable IPv6 on all interfaces.
+ This might be used when no IPv6 addresses are desired.
+
+ The possible values and their effects are:
+
+ 0
+ IPv6 is enabled on all interfaces.
+
+ This is the default value.
+
+ 1
+ IPv6 is disabled on all interfaces.
+
+ No IPv6 addresses will be added to interfaces.
