Subject: [PATCH 5/5] perf: Create a sysfs entry for Power event format


Create a sysfs entry, '/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event'
which describes the format of a POWER cpu.

The format of the event is the same for all POWER cpus at least in
(Power6, Power7), so bulk of this change is common in the code common
to POWER cpus.

This code is based on corresponding code in x86.

Changelog[v2]: [Jiri Osla] Use PMU_FORMAT_ATTR() rather than duplicating it.
