powerpc/pmu: Make the generic compat PMU use the architected events
This changes generic-compat-pmu.c so that it only uses architected events defined in Power ISA v3.0B, rather than event encodings which, while common to all the IBM Power Systems implementations, are nevertheless implementation-specific rather than architected. The intention is that any CPU implementation designed to conform to Power ISA v3.0B or later can use generic-compat-pmu.c. In addition to the existing events for cycles and instructions, this adds several other architected events, including alternative encodings for some events. In order to make it possible to measure cycles and instructions at the same time as each other, we set the CC5-6RUN bit in MMCR0, which makes PMC5 and PMC6 count instructions and cycles regardless of the run bit, so their events are now PM_CYC and PM_INST_CMPL rather than PM_RUN_CYC and PM_RUN_INST_CMPL (the latter are still available via other event codes). Note that POWER9 has an erratum where one architected event (PM_FLOP_CMPL, floating-point operations completed, code 0x100f4) does not work correctly. Given that there is a specific PMU driver for P9 which will be used in preference to generic-compat-pmu.c, that is not a real problem.
