ARM: 6071/1: perf-events: allow modules to query the number of hardware counters

Browse Source 
For OProfile to initialise oprofilefs correctly, it needs to know
the number of counters it can represent.

This patch adds a function to the ARM perf-events backend to return
the number of hardware counters available for the current PMU.
