Introduce a perf PMU, "cpum_sf", to support the CPU-Measurement
Sampling Facility. You can control the sampling facility through
this perf PMU interfaces. Perf sampling events are created for
hardware samples.
For details about the CPU-Measurement Sampling Facility, see
"The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities" (SA23-2260).

Provide PMU event attributes for supported counters and export their symbolic
names to the sysfs "events" directory.
See the /sys/devices/cpum_cf/events/ directory for a list of available counters.
Note that you might require counter set authorizations for the LPAR to use them.

The perf_event code references sie_exit even if KVM is not available.
So add proper ifdefs to fix this one:
arch/s390/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table_emu':
(.rodata+0x2b98): undefined reference to `sie_exit'
arch/s390/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table_emu':
(.rodata+0x2ba0): undefined reference to `sie_exit'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

This patch is based on an original patch of David Hildenbrand.
The perf core implementation calls architecture specific code in order
to ask for specific information for a particular sample:
perf_instruction_pointer()
When perf core code asks for the instruction pointer, architecture
specific code must detect if a KVM guest was running when the sample
was taken. A sample can be associated with a KVM guest when the PSW
supervisor state bit is set and the PSW instruction pointer part
contains the address of 'sie_exit'.
A KVM guest's instruction pointer information is then retrieved via
gpsw entry pointed to by the sie control-block.
perf_misc_flags()
perf code code calls this function in order to associate the kernel
vs. user state infomation with a particular sample. Architecture
specific code must also first detectif a KVM guest was running
at the time the sample was taken.

Add a perf PMU to access the CPU-measurement counter facility CPUM CF.
CPUM CF provides multiple counter sets for measuring generic,
problem-state, and crypto activaties. Also an extended counter set for
the IBM System z10 and IBM z196 mainframes is available.
Counters from the basic and problem-state counter set are mapped to
generic perf hardware events. Other counters are accessible through
raw events.
For a list of available counter sets and counters, see:
- The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities (SA23-2260)
- The CPU-Measurement Facility Extended Counters Definition for
z10 and z196 (SA23-2261)
