MIPS: Add hook to get C0 performance counter interrupt



The hardware perf event driver and oprofile interpret the global
cp0_perfcount_irq differently: in the hardware perf event driver
it is an offset from MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE and in oprofile it is the
actual IRQ number.  This still works most of the time since
MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE is usually 0, but is clearly wrong.  Since the
performance counter interrupt may vary from platform to platform
like the C0 timer interrupt, add the optional get_c0_perfcount_int
hook which returns the IRQ number of the performance counter.
The hook should return < 0 if the performance counter interrupt is
shared with the timer.  If the hook is not present, the CPU vector
reported in C0_IntCtl (cp0_perfcount_irq) is used.
