Subject: [PATCH 3/4] perf: Add kernel side syscall events support for breakpoints

Add the remaining necessary bits to support breakpoints created through
perf syscall.

We don't use the software counter interface as:

- We don't need to check against recursion, this is already done in
hardware breakpoints arch level.

- We already know the perf event we are dealing with when the event
is to be committed.
