powerpc/perf: Expose Performance Monitor Counter SPR's as part of extended regs



Currently Monitor Mode Control Registers and Sampling registers are
part of extended regs. Patch adds support to include Performance Monitor
Counter Registers (PMC1 to PMC6 ) as part of extended registers.

PMCs are saved in the perf interrupt handler as part of
per-cpu array 'pmcs' in struct cpu_hw_events. While capturing
the register values for extended regs, fetch these saved PMC values.

Simplified the PERF_REG_PMU_MASK_300/31 definition to include PMU
SPRs MMCR0 to PMC6. Exclude the unsupported SPRs (MMCR3, SIER2, SIER3)
from extended mask value for CPU_FTR_ARCH_300 in the new definition.

PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MAX is used to check if any index beyond the extended
registers is requested in the sample. Have one PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MAX
for CPU_FTR_ARCH_300/CPU_FTR_ARCH_31 since perf_reg_validate function
already checks the extended mask for the presence of any unsupported
register.
