s390/cpum_cf: use perf software context for hardware counters



On s390, there are two different hardware PMUs for counting and
sampling.  Previously, both PMUs have shared the perf_hw_context
which is not correct and, recently, results in this warning:

Using the perf_sw_context is an option because the cpum_cf PMU does
not use interrupts.  To make this more clear, initialize the
capabilities in the PMU structure.
