The latest version of the SBI specification includes a Performance Monitoring
Unit(PMU) extension[1] which allows the supervisor to start/stop/configure
various PMU events. The Sscofpmf ('Ss' for Privileged arch and Supervisor-level
extensions, and 'cofpmf' for Count OverFlow and Privilege Mode Filtering)
extension[2] allows the perf like tool to handle overflow interrupts and
filtering support.

This series implements remaining PMU infrastructure to support
PMU in virt machine. The first seven patches from the original series
have been merged already.

This will allow us to add any PMU events in future.
Currently, this series enables the following omu events.
1. cycle count
2. instruction count
3. DTLB load/store miss
4. ITLB prefetch miss

The first two are computed using host ticks while last three are counted during
cpu_tlb_fill. We can do both sampling and count from guest userspace.
This series has been tested on both RV64 and RV32. Both Linux[3] and Opensbi[4]
patches are required to get the perf working.

Here is an output of perf stat/report while running hackbench with latest
OpenSBI & Linux kernel.

   for VS/VU access while mcounteren is not set.

Changes from v10->v11:
1. Rebased on top of the master where first 7 patches were already merged.
2. Removed unnecessary additional check in ctr predicate function.

4. Rebased on latest Qemu.
