Subject: [patch 04/24] perfmon: interrupt handling

This patch adds the generic code to handle PMU interrupts.
On interrupt, the handler checks for register overflows, and
if the register is a counter, the 64-bit software maintained
register is updated, i.e., it ensures 64-bit virtualization
of the counters whenever necessary.

+ *
+ * Version Perfmon-2.x is a complete rewrite of perfmon-1.x
