drivers/perf: hisi: Add TLP filter support
The PMU support to filter the TLP when counting the bandwidth with below options: - only count the TLP headers - only count the TLP payloads - count both TLP headers and payloads In the current driver it's default to count the TLP payloads only, which will have an implicity side effects that on the traffic only have header only TLPs, we'll get no data. Make this user configuration through "len_mode" parameter and make it default to count both TLP headers and payloads when user not specified. Also update the documentation for it.

+4. TLP Length filter
+
+ When counting bandwidth, the data can be composed of certain parts of TLP
+ packets. You can specify it through "len_mode":
+
+ - 2'b00: Reserved (Do not use this since the behaviour is undefined)
+ - 2'b01: Bandwidth of TLP payloads
+ - 2'b10: Bandwidth of TLP headers
+ - 2'b11: Bandwidth of both TLP payloads and headers
+
+ For example, "len_mode=2" means only counting the bandwidth of TLP headers
+ and "len_mode=3" means the final bandwidth data is composed of both TLP
+ headers and payloads. Default value if not specified is 2'b11.
