Hi Stephane,

Attached is a patch that implements the settings for POWER8. It is tested and 
results mirror those from using the perf tool. u/k/h are now supported for both 
generic ‘perf’ events and PMU events. Thanks very much for your help on this! 

In digging through the kernel perf code, I was unable to decipher (in the 30 
minutes I spent) whether or now Power7 or other members of the family have this 
support. Just as well, since I can’t test them.

@IBM folks, you can simply add a .supported_plm = POWER_PLM to the 
pfmlib_power?.c emu descriptor to test U/K counting. If it supports hypervisor 
(or others), see pfmlib_power_priv.h for the definition of POWER8_PLM.
