Subject: [RFC -tip]
Hi,
please review the approach, I can't test it due to lack
of hw (btw Ming, if you have some spare minutes -- mind to
pass some event as RAW and see how it goes?).
It just unifdef perf_event_p4.h and export it to user space.
Any complains are welcome. I've considered a separate header
file without #ifdef which would consists of definitions user
space may need but in result it become more messy then a few
#ifdefs in shared header.

perf, x86: Export RAW events specification to user space
P4 RAW events are tricky and need special bits passed from
userspace, we export RAW events specification so the user
space libraries may use it.
