This adds a new dynamic PMU to the Perf Events framework to program
and control the L3 cache PMUs in some Qualcomm Technologies SOCs.
The driver supports a distributed cache architecture where the overall
cache for a socket is comprised of multiple slices each with its own PMU.
Access to each individual PMU is provided even though all CPUs share all
the slices. User space needs to aggregate to individual counts to provide
a global picture.
The driver exports formatting and event information to sysfs so it can
be used by the perf user space tools with the syntaxes:
perf stat -a -e l3cache_0_0/read-miss/
perf stat -a -e l3cache_0_0/event=0x21/

Adds perf events support for L2 cache PMU.
The L2 cache PMU driver is named 'l2cache_0' and can be used
with perf events to profile L2 events such as cache hits
and misses on Qualcomm Technologies processors.

This patch adds a driver for the SoC-wide (AKA uncore) PMU hardware
found in APM X-Gene SoCs.
